Bossier City police arrested two people today after discovering components of an active methamphetamine lab in a pickup truck parked outside a local casino hotel. 

Police arrested 28-year old Adam Brent Peal of Shreveport and Brittany Rachelle Brice of Farmerville for creation of a clandestine lab and resisting an officer after police were called to the Boomtown Casino Hotel Monday afternoon to investigate a man who was using a fake identification card while staying at the hotel.

Bossier City patrol officers and narcotics agents responded and made contact with the two suspects who initially gave officers false names.  Upon further investigation officers located the Toyota Tundra pickup truck that the man was driving parked next to the hotel entrance.  Inside the rear seat compartment officers found components used to make methamphetamine, some of which had been mixed.    

Due to the volatile state of the chemicals police and casino personnel cordoned off an area in the vicinity of the hotel entrance as a precaution and called Bossier City Fire Department hazmat personnel who responded and rendered the chemicals safe for disposal. 

Peal and Brice were taken into custody and booked into the Bossier City Jail.  In addition to the listed charges Peal was also booked for being a fugitive from Louisiana Probation and Parole.
