Pittsburgh police arrested one man and obtained an arrest warrant for a second man after a suspected methamphetamine lab was discovered early Sunday in a Squirrel Hill apartment.
About 1:15 a.m. Sunday, police were called to a residence in the 6300 block of Darlington Road after a resident reported a suspected burglary in progress.
Responding officers evacuated all of the occupants to conduct a protective sweep for a possible suspect when they recognized the markings of a meth lab inside one of the upstairs apartment suites, police said in a news release.
A hazardous materials team was called to the scene to conduct testing. One man who has not been identified was arrested at the scene on multiple drug-related charges.
The Pennsylvania State Police Clandestine Lab Response Team was called in to remove the chemical contents inside the apartment.
The investigation is ongoing, police said.
