Police shutdown Indian River man’s meth lab

ALPENA, Mich. — The Straits Area Narcotics Enforcement (S.A.N.E.) team busted a man for running a meth lab. That man faces several operation and possession felony charges, and one misdemeanor charge.

Cheboygan County deputies arrested Indian River resident Cody Adam Pakulski for an outstanding warrant this month. Officers found meth in the car upon Pakulski’s arrest. Evidence led detectives to search and shutdown Pakulski’s meth lab at his home.

Police say there are health risks and environmental dangers associated with meth, especially for unsuspecting victims.

S.A.N.E. says the 32–year–old man was arraigned Friday on felony charges of operating/maintaining a laboratory involving hazardous waste with a maximum penalty of 20 years and/or $100,000, manufacturing methamphetamine with a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison and/or $25,000.00 fine, operating/maintaining laboratory involving methamphetamine with a maximum penalty of 20 years and/or $25,000.00, possession of methamphetamine with a maximum penalty of 10 years and/or $15,000.00, and a misdemeanor charge of maintaining a drug house with a maximum penalty of 2 years and/or $25,000.00.
