CALUMET TOWNSHIP, MI--   Police uncovered a meth lab at a Calumet Township residence Thursday.

Detectives from the Upper Peninsula Substance Enforcement Team executed a search warrant at a house on Caledonia Street. They had developed information indicating the homeowner was manufacturing meth and that there was a lab in the residence.

Detectives recovered numerous components used in the manufacturing process, including pseudoephedrine. A meth lab was found in the basement. It contained a small amount of meth and drug paraphernalia. Detectives removed 11 five-gallon buckets of waste products from the house.

No arrests have yet been made and the investigation is ongoing.
