Court Hearings Thursday, Friday for Two Arrested With Suspected Mobile Meth Lab
A Knox County judge has set bond for two Galesburg men facing multiple-meth related charges after an alleged mobile meth lab was discovered Wednesday.

Kxox County Circuit Court records indicate Judge James Stewart Thursday set bail at $150,000 for 20-year-old Tyler Allbright and $75,000 for 27-year-old Corice Wright.

A Galesburg police report shows Allbright and Wright were pulled over the East Simmons Street parking lot across from the WGIL studios around 10am Wednesday morning. Police say inside their vehicle they found an anhydrous ammonia container, under a gram of suspected meth, a coffee-pill grinder with white powder residue, and 96 pseudoephedrine tablets.

Both men are facing class-three felony charges for possession of methamphetamine. Allbright is also being charged with unlawful possession of anhydrous ammonia, possession of meth manufacturing materials, and participation in meth-production.

Allbright and Wright appeared before Judge Stewart with their public defenders on Friday. Both will be in court for preliminary hearings January 27th.
