Meth lab busted at truck stop business

ROBERTSDALE, Ala. (WALA) - The Baldwin County Sheriffs' Office arrested two people Tuesday in Robertsdale for having a meth lab in their business.

It was All Pro CB Shop which is located at a travel center on Wilcox Road.

Captain Steve Arthur said they searched the business after a tip.

"We had a private citizen call and tell us that we may want to check this CB repair shop at the travel center at Wilcox, that they may be manufacturing methamphetamine,” said Arthur.

Inside the shop, deputies say they found a methamphetamine lab, methamphetamine, paraphernalia and two guns.

The owners Tina and Lyndon Musselwhite were arrested.

Deputies are worried the pair was doing more than cooking the drug.

"There is speculation that they may have been selling to those truck drivers, and that's certainly something were looking into,” Arthur said.

Truck Driver Mike Savage said he doesn't see drivers using meth often, but there are drugs on the road.

"There’s some truck drivers that you suspect are doing something other than eating Tic Tacs,” Savage said.

Savage said impaired person behind the wheel of a massive truck is a scary thought.

"You see them out here. And your on the road with them, and they're endangering you and your life and everybody else’s lives just for a chance to get high. And it's not right,” said Savage.

Both suspects were booked for manufacturing a controlled substance and possession. They were released on $30,000 bond each.
