In South Carolina Two men, both 26-years-old, were arrested for manufacturing Meth after the lab waste they dumped at a convenience store made an employee sick.  The employee picked up what he thought was a bag of trash and then was overcome by fumes.  Chemicals in the bag mixed and discharged a toxic cloud.  He was treated at a hospital and released.  Officers traced the lab waste to a mobile home park and the two men.  A search of their homes turned up Meth.
