In Tennessee – One man may face charges after sheriff’s deputies found a Meth lab at his house.  Officers went to the house to check out a complaint and saw items associated with Meth manufacturing on the back porch.  They also picked up on a strong odor of anhydrous ammonia coming from the house.  After getting a search warrant, officers found a variety of Meth making materials and a handgun. 

In Quebec, Canada - Police seized 300 grams of crystal Meth and arrested six people, including three men charged with possession for trafficking.  Officers also seized 16 grams of pure PCP and $3,500 in cash.

In Illinois - Flames from what police believe was a Meth lab explosion injured two men and badly damaged a home.  The men, 33- and 21-years-old, suffered burns and smoke inhalation.  When firefighters arrived on the scene, they saw heavy smoke billowing from the single story home. Firefighters determined the blaze started on the stove and turned the investigation over to police.  Officers believe the two men were cooking Meth and that it flashed, causing the blaze.  The men did not live at the house, which suffered about $40,000 worth of damage.
