Breaking Bad IRL of the Day: A fire at a nursing home in Ohio that claimed the life of one person and left several others injured was caused by a meth lab explosion according to local authorities.
The lab was reportedly set up inside the room of a resident at the Park Haven Nursing Home in Ashtabula.
The lone fatality, 31-year-old Shaun Warrens, was not a patient or an employee. Three residents and two non-residents were also hospitalized, but their condition was not released.
It remained unclear how long the meth lab had been operating inside the home, and who had known about its existence, but police say their belief is that at least two visitors and one resident were aware of it.
Park Haven had previously been cited for multiple violations stemming from inadequate care.
“It’s created quite a stir, and rightfully so,” Lt. William Parkomaki of the Ashtabula PD said. “The methamphetamine problem is a very, very big problem, not only in our county and our community, but in communities and counties across the country.”
