A Glenville State College student has been arrested and charged with operating or attempting to operate a meth lab.

Conner Smith, 20, was arrested early Wednesday morning and is incarcerated in Central Regional Jail with bond set at $150,000.

The Glenville Police Department pulled over Smith's vehicle for white for driving left of the center line, after which Smith admitted he had marijuana pipes that he used to smoke marijuana, according to the criminal complaint.

When police went looking for the pipes, they discovered a can of starter fluid, Advil Flu and Body Ache containing pseudoephedrine, Zippo butane fuel, and a ziplock bag containing what appeared to be crushed up pills, says the criminal complaint.

The police officer, according to the complaint, asked Smith to open the trunk of his car, after which the officer found a green plastic bag containing pipe cutters, a jar full of white powder with lithium strips testing positive for traces of meth.

Also discovered was a bottle of lighter fluid, aluminum foil tubing, a cold pack busted open, and a bag of salt.
