HOUGHTON, MI— Two Houghton residents have been arrested for manufacturing meth.
Detectives from the Upper Peninsula Substance Enforcement Team developed information indicating occupants of a house on Spruce Lane were making meth and there was a possible meth lab in the house.
On Thursday, UPSET executed a search warrant at the home. Detectives recovered numerous components used in the manufacturing process, including a “one pot” meth lab. Eight five-gallon buckets of hazardous waste were removed from the house.
