Hernshaw woman faces meth charge (West Virginia)

Kanawha County sheriff’s deputies arrested a woman Tuesday for running a meth lab in the house she shared with her three children.

Deputies responding to an anonymous tip searched the Hernshaw home of Sandy Burgess, 42, and found items allegedly used in making meth, including plastic tubing, a propane canister and lye, according to a complaint filed in Kanawha County Magistrate Court by Deputy B.R. Martin.

Burgess apparently ran from the house during the search, the complaint said. She was later arrested for allegedly operating a meth lab and doing so around her children Macey, Lacy and Allen Burgess, according to the complaint.
