Amherst, N.Y. (WGRZ) — Investigations are underway after New York police found a meth lab in a sewer underneath an Amherst, New York Walmart parking lot Monday afternoon.

“The State Police SORT Team is what came out. We brought them in. They did a fantastic job collecting, photographing the scene and bringing the items out here,” said Amherst Police Capt. Scott Chamberlin.

Police plan on looking at surveillance video from the Walmart parking lot to see if they can come up with any suspects, and they assure people that there is no reason to be worried about dangerous chemicals.
