Major drug bust in Charleston

Several people are behind bars after a major drug bust in Charleston.

Police say they arrested nine people Thursday into Friday and charged them with operating or attempting to operate a meth lab.

Police saw suspicious activity while checking out a house on Elm Street Thursday night. A man got into a truck with another man while carrying a suspicious package.

Police say they followed the two men and eventually pulled them over. That’s when they found meth making materials in the vehicle and arrested the men.

Friday morning, police went back to search the same home and found additional meth making materials inside.

The findings led to seven other arrests.
