Tuscaloosa deputies arrest 3, search for 1, in meth bust

Tuscaloosa deputies tried to serve an arrest warrant on one man - but they ended up busting three others on drug charges.

Friday, deputies attempted to serve a warrant on Christopher Scruggs in the 13000 block of Home Place Road near the Coker community.

There, they found an active meth lab and 3 other suspects.

Patricia Crawford, David Dean, and Coleman Dean were arrested and charged with unlawful manufacturing of a controlled substance.

Deputies are still looking for Christopher Scruggs.  He is wanted on charges of unlawful possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia.  He could face other charges.
