Dangerous drug lab found in Rock Island

A tip led authorities from Grant & Douglas County to a dangerous drug lab in a home at 4620 Hurst Landing Road in Rock Island.   Investigators were on the scene Wednesday afternoon with Department of Ecology teams to clean up and remove all hazardous materials.

The lab was producing DMT, a hallucinogen known on the street as Dimitri and BTO or butane honey oil, a cannabinoid.   The residence contained many pounds of finished product commonly sold a gram at a time.  Detectives also found thousands of bottles, containers and labels, commercial sealers, and packaging and shipping supplies.

The investigation involved over 10 search warrants, the Washington State Patrol SWAT team and crime lab, Washington Department of Ecology, Columbia River Drug Task Force, Grant County’s Interagency Narcotics Enforcement Team (INET), and the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office.

Nobody has yet been charged or booked into jail, according to a press release from Kyle Foreman with the Grant County Sheriff's Office.
