Rhea County sheriff's deputies arrest a man they say has been living in the woods for a year, in the middle of his pot patch.

Deputies arrested 53 year old Barry McDonald when they found his campsite about a mile into the woods in the north end of Rhea County.

Deputies say they found McDonald's camouflaged campsite nestled among 250 pot plants. They seized the marijuana and a sawed off shot gun they found in the two room tent.

McDonald turned out to be a fugitive from Ohio.

He's listed as a violent sex offender.

McDonald is now facing charges of manufacturing marijuana and weapons charges.
