National Desk
April 24, 2026
Greenville County Sheriff's Office investigators discovered multiple "shake and bake" methamphetamine labs operating inside a residential property on Ohl Street, according to law enforcement reports. Officers responding to the location uncovered several active drug production facilities during the operation. The investigation yielded substantial seizures of controlled substances. Law enforcement recovered nearly 5 pounds of methamphetamine, nearly a pound of cocaine, almost 2 ounces of marijuana, and multiple firearms during the operation. The seizure also included approximately $500,000 in methamphetamine based on month-long investigative work targeting a local drug trafficking organization. Six individuals were arrested in connection with the bust and face various drug-related charges. The operation was conducted at the Emerald Commons Apartments on White Horse Road in Greenville, highlighting the scope of methamphetamine production across multiple Greenville County locations. The investigation involved coordination between local law enforcement and federal agencies, including Homeland Security, demonstrating the multi-agency approach required to dismantle sophisticated drug networks. The seizures and arrests reflect ongoing efforts by the Greenville County Sheriff's Office to disrupt drug trafficking organizations with ties to larger distribution networks.
