RITCHIE OFFICERS TAKE-DOWN THREE METH LABS

(01/26/2011)

Ritchie County authorities have arrested four individuals connected to three meth lab operations. The busts were made by the Ritchie Eradication And Crisis Team, or REACT, which includes State Police and Ritchie County Sheriff's deputies. Police arrested David Hanlon and Tracie Hall-Jett in Pennsboro while they were preparing ingredients. Michael Rinehart of Petroleum was also found to be in possession of an inactive lab. Authorities also found a lab at the Eric Nutt residence in Harrisville. State Police told WBOY-TV that labs are getting harder to find because they're becoming more portable.
