Affton Office Building Doubled as Meth Lab, Set off Alarms

At an Affton office building at 9700 Mackenzie, St. Louis County Police and Affton firefighters found a meth lab suspected of being run within a Dish Network distribution office, Fox2 reports.

Smoke from the meth lab set off fire alarms around 4:30 p.m. on Sunday, and firefighters found the methamphetamine lab in the second floor suite. 

Dish Network moved in about a month ago, and neighbors reported people and noises coming from the office late at night.
