Three people were arrested and charged Wednesday night when a month-long investigation resulted in the discovery of a methamphetamine lab in Cicero, New York. Renee Fatta, Gerald Reome, and Samuel Glenny were arrested when a search warrant was executed at 5637 Bear Road, where they ran a clandestine laboratory.

Six ounces of methamphetamine was seized and "a quantity" of both cocaine and Ketamine were seized during the arrest. The DEA Central New York High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (HIDTA) Task Force led a month-long investigation leading to the warrant and arrests. The Onondaga County Sheriff's Office, DEA, Onondaga County DA's Office and NYSP Contaminated Crime Scene Emergency Response Team all participated in that investigation. 

The laboratory has been dismantled, and all hazardous materials have been safely disposed of. All three suspects were remanded to the Town of Salina Court and are being held without bail.

Hannah vividly remembers pulling up in the driveway with her mom as a child and sitting in the car as it idled with the radio on, listening to Ira Glass finish his thought on This American Life. When he reached a transition, it was a wild race out of the car and into the house to flip on the story again and keep listening. Hannah’s love of radio reporting has stuck with her ever since.
