Homes Evacuated Over Suspected Drug Lab
CITRUS HEIGHTS (CBS13) ―
At least a dozen homes were evacuated in Citrus
Heights after a confrontation with an out-of-control man led
police to a possible drug lab.
Authorities responded to reports of a man swinging a baseball
bat and starting fights on Saturday night. They followed the man as he darted
into a home, and discovered a room that appeared to be used to make methamphetamine.
Fearing an explosion, police immediately evacuated the
surrounding area.
The man who led police to the find was not apprehended, and
it is not yet known if he was part of the suspected drug operation. The two
occupants of the house were questioned by police.
