No Methlab on Ridgeland Ave
Decatur Metro | August 19, 2010UPDATE: Here’s Fox5’s segment on the non-event…
Sounds like there was quite the event on Ridgeland Avenue last night. From WSB…
Police in DeKalb County blocked off a street and called in a hazmat team to a Decatur home early Thursday morning.
Channel 2 Action News reporter Rebecca Lindstrom was at the scene on Ridgeland Avenue in Decatur and said officers were originally called out to a home that had a possible meth lab inside.
Officials said they received a call from a neighbor who said the homeowner was acting strangely.
DeKalb County Fire Department officials sent its hazmat unit to the home just before 3 a.m. after police reported something suspicious on the porch. Hazmat team members left at about 5 a.m., but the DEA’s Clandestine Lab unit arrived at the scene to take its place.
Just after 6 a.m., Decatur police said they did not find a meth lab in the home, but they did find some unidentified liquids and materials. Officials said the liquids and materials do not appear to be explosive.
