LAWRENCE, Mich. – Police arrested a woman for operating a mobile meth lab in Van Buren County.

The backpack contained a 2-liter bottle with white substance inside.

The Van Buren County Narcotics Detectives were called in and it was determined it was an active meth lab.
Police said the woman was taken to the Van Buren County Jail and the case was turned over to the prosecutor’s office.
