A south Fayette man is in custody
after drug agents found a disassembled methamphetamine lab in a barn behind
his south Fayette residence late Friday evening, police said.
When Robert Bylock, 39, was
arrested in Clayton County Monday, agents discovered another meth lab
in his SUV, police said.
Bylock is charged with one
count of manufacturing methamphetamine and one count of possession of
anhydrous ammonia, one of the main compounds used to create the illegal
drug.
Agents from the Fayette County
Sheriff's Department Drug Task Force and the Clandestine Lab Team
from the Federal Drug Enforcement Agency raided Bylock's home at
1383 Redwine Road late Friday night, but he wasn't home, police said.
Agents from the sheriff's department's Special Enforcement Team
were also on hand as the search warrant was executed because of the increased
danger involved, agents said.
The lab had apparently been
disassembled, but there was significant evidence Bylock had "cooked"
methamphetamine at the residence, agents said. Although chemicals common
in methamphetamine manufacturing were found at the residence, no contraband
or money was found, agents said.
Bylock was found Monday at
the Tara Inn and Suites in Clayton County where he was arrested by Fayette
DTF agents and their counterparts in Clayton County, agents said. When
they went to search his Toyota 4-Runner SUV in the parking lot, they found
a meth lab that had been used to manufacture methamphetamine on the go,
agents said.
It is anticipated that Clayton
County will also file charges on Bylock, Fayette drug agents said.
Although the lab at the Fayette
residence was disassembled, agents believe Bylock was still living at
the home there, agents said.
When methamphetamine is cooked,
it produces a strong chemical odor, agents said.
