Default 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,

how do you put a meth lab in a car...thinking it must be a van but the smell would be horrific...and the heat to cook the meth is even more scary...thanks for the post GG keep us posted..

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.
