Lights are on in the funeral home, cops check it out.

WALNUT RIDGE, Ark. - A funeral home might be a place for eternal rest, but police say an Arkansas man saw an opportunity to build a methamphetamine lab undisturbed by the living.

There was just one problem - the funeral home was across the street from the sheriff's office.
Officers say Robert Lewis left the light on in the basement of the Higginbotham Funeral Home in Walnut Ridge on Dec. 3.

Officers noticed the light on after hours and walked into the funeral home through an open door.

Inside, police say they found all the components necessary to build a meth lab. Lewis now faces several drug charges and is free on $2,500 bond pending a Jan. 21 court hearing

1. Hmm. A meth lab.
Far less disturbing than what I fully expected this to be about...
