Firefighters extinguished a blaze in a house in Lancaster and authorities investigated Friday the possibility the home was used as a drug lab.
The fire erupted about 10 p.m. Thursday in the 40900 block of 172nd Street East, according to Lt. P. Bartlett of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department’s Lancaster Station.
A knockdown was declared about 10:40 p.m.
Narcotics Bureau detectives were at the scene Friday morning trying to determine if the location served as a drug lab, Bartlett said.
No injuries were reported and the cause of the fire was under investigation.
