A decontamination unit has been brought to a rural property near Rock Creek where RCMP say they shut down a sophisticated methamphetamine lab.

Police say they seized a large amount of illicit drugs and numerous weapons while executing a search warrant last Wednesday.

The raid also prompted a “Do Not Use” order from Interior Health for 25 homes in the area, because of evidence that solvents and hazardous materials from the drug lab were being dumped on the ground.
