Rolling meth lab busted on Rolling Acres Rd.
 
Whoops, NOT busted in The Villages. Busted on Rolling Acres drive but I heard this just now on channel six news and I hope I am reporting it accurately.

Two men, one from The Villages, were arrested at a traffic stop and charged with having a "rolling meth lab" in their vehicle. I THINK this man lives with his mother on Palo Alto drive. The man himself is 58.

See below this article I found online.

And this one too,

Kudos to LCSO (Lake sheriff) for having officers on the ball to spot this one. Cooking in a Gatorade bottle...wow.

Wasn't there a meth lab last year in someone's attic?

According to the articles, the traffic stop was made on Rolling Acres Road - so it was not on Villages property. It was in Lady Lake!

I wonder who they sell to in the area? Obviously, none of the groups in front of me playing golf have ever taken "speed".

One's name is Verticelli. I thought that was the name of a pasta so I looked it up. The pasta is Vermicelli.

These guys look like they have done their share of crystal meth.

I think there are some very unsavory characters moving into TV. We see people all the time who don't look like they belong here, but it's a perfect place for criminal activity - quiet neighborhoods, older residents, not much police presence off the main roads into the back roads, lots of houses rented out year round. I have reclusive neighbors who are seasonal and quite frankly if someone was using their home in the summer I would never know about it or whether they should be there. The rest of us talk and communicate with each other, but not them.

From what I understand, a meth lab smells like strong ammonia. If you smelled that coming from a neighbor home, call the sheriff.

Talk to neighbors. Get to know them. If there is constant foot traffic or car traffic at a house at odd hours, get suspicious. Let someone know.

This is our community. Get proactive.

I once knew a guy who wrapped SPAM in tin foil and cooked it on the manifold of his pickup. Maybe you can cook crack like that-y'think?

Two meth labs connected with The Villages. Nicely busted. Many thanks, officers.

Wish people would only take in their NICE kids.

We all need to be involved in our community.
