Two One Pot Meth Labs Found during Traffic Stop

Two One Pot Meth Labs Found during Traffic Stop
 
Vigo County—Last night at 11:30, officers from the Vigo County Drug Task Force and the Terre Haute Police Department’s Violent Crimes Unit, stopped a red 2002 Mercury near Voorhees and Thompson Streets in Terre Haute.
 
During the stop, officers developed information that led to the discovery of two active “one pot” mobile meth labs inside the vehicle. Indiana State Police Troopers from the Putnamville District Meth Suppression Team were called to the scene to assist with the deactivation of the chemical process and removal of the chemicals.
 
Arrested was 30-year-old Mark Uhey of Terre Haute, IN. Uhey was preliminarily charged with Possession of Methamphetamine, Manufacturing of Methamphetamine, Possession of Precursors, and Maintaining a Common Nuisance.
 
Pictures from scene attached.
 
Under the Law, criminal charges are merely accusations and the defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.
