Eight people, including a juvenile, are in custody after Jacksonville police found a meth lab Sunday in a Lakeshore neighborhood.
Police responded to the 4800 block of Riverdale Road initially to a call about a physical altercation between two people.
The call led officers to a residence with an unattached shed containing meth-making materials.
Residents surrounding the shed have been evacuated.
Police said a hazmat and narcotics unit are at the scene as Jacksonville Sheriff's Office continues to investigate.
