Anthony Johnston, 24, was arrested on suspicion of possession of drug paraphernalia with intent to manufacture methamphetamine. Johnston was released from the Crawford County Detention Center Thursday after posting $5,000 bond.
Van Buren Police Lt. Brent Grill said an unknown person called the Crawford County Sheriff's Office to report a strange odor at Meadow Lane Apartments, 2020 Baldwin Street. A sheriff's investigator then contacted Van Buren police, who went to the complex to investigate.
Upon arrival, they made contact with Johnston. While talking with Johnston outside Apartment 4, Grill said an investigator opened the apartment door and "smelled what he knew to be a really strong chemical odor associated with a meth lab."
Another investigator then went over to a nearby garbage bin and found items commonly associated with producing meth, according to Grill.
After getting consent to search the apartment, Grill said investigators found materials such as matches and empty packages of cold medicine, both of which Grill said can be used to manufacture meth.
