Suspects in Alleged Meth Lab Fire Make Court Apearances
Two men allegedly involved in a recent trailer fire in Galesburg, and face felony charges, will be heading for a preliminary hearing later this month.

27-year old Sean Moore and 30-year old David Fisher were in Knox County Court Friday, after being taken into custody by the Galesburg Police Department last Sunday when a trailer they were in at 128 Loraine Drive inside the Kimberly Terrace caught fire.

Moore and Fisher were believed to be at the trailer which was later found by investigators to have items allegedly used to manufacture methamphetamine inside. According to Knox County Court documents, Moore was arrested and charged with felony counts of Aggravated Participation in Meth Production, Unlawful Possession of Meth, and Possession of Meth Manufacturing Materials. Moore is scheduled to have a preliminary hearing on May 11th which also includes a bond reduction hearing. Moore's bond is currently set at $100,000 while he is in custody at the Knox County Jail.

Fisher was arrested by police authorities after the fire on a Knox County Warrant charging him with Possession of Meth and Possession of Drug Paraphernalia. Fisher will be back in Knox County Court for his preliminary hearing on May 18th.
