NASHVILLE, Tenn. -
Metro Police discovered two possible mobile meth labs early Friday morning.
The first was found just before 1 a.m. when an officer was making a traffic stop on Smith Spring Road near Bell Road in Antioch.
During the traffic stop, the officer discovered the driver was wanted out of Carroll County for meth production and child endangerment.
The officer then observed indicators that a meth lab was possibly inside the trunk of the car.
He then called in Metro's Methamphetamine Suppression Unit and the bomb squad to the scene where they found a functional but not active meth lab.
That driver will be charged with initiation process of a meth lab, meth production, felony possession of meth, felony possession of marijuana, and other charges.
The driver's identity has not been released.
A short time later, Metro police were called to their own towing lot on Freightliner Driver near downtown to a possible meth lab.
Police told Nashville's News 2, there were indicators inside the car that point to a mobile meth lab, such as coffee filters and Drano.
Police will continue to investigate the car.
