NOBLESVILLE, Ind. -- Police evacuated a Noblesville Marriott Wednesday morning after they reportedly found a meth lab in a hotel room.
Katrina Saunders, 51, of Noblesville, and Richard K. Pridgeon, 39, of Thomasville, Georgia, were both arrested in the raid at the Courtyard Marriott at 17863 Foundation Drive, according to an Indy Star article.
"They set up up little labs everywhere now," Noblesville Police Lt. Bruce Barnes said, in the report. "Cars, garages, hotel rooms, nothing is too surprising. This was a small operation, not something where they set up shop for days."
