KBI: Number of Meth Labs Increasing
The KBI says the number of meth lab reports increased from 143 in 2010 to 204 last year.
Kansas law enforcement reported 24 meth lab incidents in the first three months of this year.
The Lawrence Journal-World reports Cherokee and Montgomery counties lead the state in reports this year with six and five incidents, respectively.
Experts say the number of methamphetamine labs has risen across the nation. They attribute the increase to the popularity of methods that require less equipment and pseudoephedrine to produce the drug.
