WESTLAKE, La. (AP) - Drug task force officers are investigating a fire at the Isle of Capri Casino hotel that they believe was caused by someone operating a methamphetamine lab. Westlake Police Chief Jeremy Cryer said firefighters responded to a call on the sixth floor of the hotel Monday night, where they found chemicals that they determined were used in a mobile meth lab. Cryer said a state hazardous-materials crew was brought in and that the case has been handed to the Combined Anti-Drug Task Force. Detectives are searching for the suspects. --- Information from: American Press,
