Agents with the Morgan County Sheriff's Office Narcotics and Violent Crimes Task Force arrested two men on Tuesday, in two separate methamphetamine busts.
Sheriff Greg Bartlett says agents executed a search warrant Tuesday at the Super 8 Motel at 70 Marco Drive in Priceville. William Gregory Holloway, 42, was in Room 122. Agents searched the room, a vehicle and a dumpster and found several one-pot clandestine meth labs. Sheriff Bartlett said the vehicle Holloway was driving was also reported stolen from Birmingham.
Holloway is charged with unlawful manufacturing in the first degree. He is being held in the Morgan County Detention Facility on a $500,000 bond. Holloway was out on bond for drug charges by Decatur Police.
Hartselle Police also asked the task force to step in to help in another incident on Tuesday. Hartselle Police pulled over Brandon Williams, 37, for displaying a switched tag on his vehicle.
Police also saw that Williams had an outstanding warrant for his arrest, from Decatur Police. Hartselle Police searched the vehicle and found a red phosphorous methamphetamine clandestine meth lab. Sheriff Bartlett said task force agents later searched Williams' home in Hartselle and found meth there, as well.
Williams is charged with unlawful manufacturing in the second degree and possession of methamphetamine. He is being held in the Morgan County Detention Center on a $7,500 bond.
