Raids targeting a wholesale marijuana ring based in New York and Florida resulted in the arrests of 45 people, including one of the founders of the Roc-A-Fella record label, prosecutors said Friday.

 

Kareem Burke, who started the hip-hop label with Jay-Z and Damn Dash in the 1990s, was caught on a wiretap discussing "grow houses" with the ringleader, federal prosecutors in Manhattan said. An employee of High Times magazine also was charged. (AP)
