(KMZA)--A father and son were arrested after an alleged meth lab fire at a Pottawatomie County home.

The Pottawatomie County Sheriff's Office, in a release, said crews were called just after 12:30 Tuesday afternoon to a mobile home fire in the 400 block of East Plum Street in Louisville.

Upon arrival, emergency crews found 80-year-old Odis Parker and 47-year-old Odis Parker, Jr. outside the home with minor injuries.

The Sheriff's Office says deputies learned there was a methamphetamine lab inside the residence.

The release says a search warrant was applied for and executed on the residence once the fire was out. As a result, both Parkers were arrested on charges of manufacturing a controlled substance and possession of paraphernalia with intent to manufacture a controlled substance.

The elder Parker was also arrested on charges of criminal use of weapons, possession of a stimulant, possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia.

The younger Parker was also arrested on charges of arson by manufacturing a controlled substance and aggravated battery.

Following their arrest, the pair were booked into the Pottawatomie County Jail. Both are being held $10,000 bonds.
