The article is stamped 16 September 2020 and says the exercise was conducted "yesterday", and later "on Tuesday". Tuesday was 15 September 2020, which the item uses.

Quantities

The article says the police found "a total of 300 pounds equivalent to 136.078 kilograms of marijuana" and, in its account of the two camps, "52 pounds of marijuana" in the first and "another 250 pounds" in the second. The two camp figures add to 302 pounds. The item gives the 300 pounds and 136.078 kilograms as the article states them.

The plant count is the sum of the two numbers the article gives: "ten thousand fully grown marijuana trees" and "5,000 seedlings", 15,000 in all. The street values the article gives are the police's estimates and are not recorded as quantities.

Place

The article names "Cedar Grove Road, Mayaro" under its photograph, and describes the first camp at "Gregorio Trace, Cedar Grove in Mayaro". It does not name a locality for the second camp.

Map pin

No plot position is given. The pin is Wikidata's point for the town of Mayaro (Q6796869), rounded to two decimals, as an event site; it does not mark the camps.
