NORTHPORT
State police say they’ve uncovered a methamphetamine lab in Northport in the second such discovery of 2016.
Police say they discovered the meth lab while checking on a Prescott Road resident who was free on bail on unrelated drug charges.
Authorities say they charged 38-year-old Melinda Way for violating conditions of her bail. They say Way and a second person are expected to face drug charges next week.
Early in the week, police say they were investigating a suspicious when they found meth ingredients inside.
State police say 46-year-old Charles McNeice and 33-year-old Nicole Adams, both from Gray, face charges of operating a meth lab in that incident. Maine ended 2015 with 56 meth lab incidents, an all-time high.
