Muhlenberg County Meth Bust

Posted: 1:43 PM May 25, 2012

An elderly man and two teenagers in Muhlenberg County are behind bars today after sheriff's deputies find a meth lab.

It happened when a deputy went to investigate 48-year old William Pentecost's home in Browder of suspicious drug activity.

After entering the home, deputies found out that Pentecost and both 18 and 19-year old Randall Ward and Aaron Barbre were making meth.

Also behind the residence, officers found marijuana plants growing within a fenced area.

All three were charged with manufacturing methamphetamine with Pentecost having addtional charges including cultivating marijuana.

All three are currently lodged at the Muhlenberg County Detention Center.
