Meth continues to be a problem in the U.P.
The Upper Peninsula Substance Enforcement Team was called to Ishpeming yesterday afternoon to cleanup several one–pot meth labs.
Ishpeming Police Chief Dan Willey said that he just happened to be driving near the dump-sites, about a half–mile behind U.P. Health System Bell.
Police discovered three one–pot meth labs, two HCL generators, and several other components that are used to make meth, dangerously close to the city’s water wells.
Willey said the dump site is a concern because one of the HCL Generators they found was floating in melted water next to the well and that water is going to go into their water and go their wells.
UPSET Detectives carefully removed and disposed all of the meth making materials.
No arrests have been made in connection with this case.
