Drug processing lab found in Nanaimo home, three in custody

Few details have been released, but three Nanaimo residents are in custody after authorities found a drug processing lab in a home Tuesday.

A representative with the RCMP’s Federal and Serious Organized Crime unit says members of the Clandestine Laboratory Enforcement and Response (CLEAR) team entered a home in the 3900-block of Hammond Bay Road just before 10 a.m.

RCMP says a second warrant in the case has been issued for a home on Kiara Place, also in north Nanaimo.

Officers were still at the scene Tuesday night and more information is expected Wednesday.

The investigation continues.
