Two people were arrested Friday on drug-related charges at a local hotel, according to a Warsaw Police Department press release issued this morning. On Friday at approximately 12:45 p.m., Warsaw police were called to the Comfort Inn after hotel staff could not get into a room after the occupants should have checked out. Officers arrived and found the safety lock bar on the door engaged but could see a male subject sleeping on the bed. After several attempts, the male was awakened and opened the door. Once inside, officers located an active one-pot methamphetamine lab, precursors to the manufacture of meth, syringes and finished methamphetamine product. A female was also present in the room.
