Thousands of liters of raw materials for synthetic drugs in a Limburg warehouse
The police found thousands of liters of raw materials for the production of synthetic drugs in a warehouse in the Limburg village of Baarlo on Thursday afternoon. No suspects have been arrested yet.

Fireworks
Raw materials for the production of synthetic drugs were found in two rooms in a warehouse on the Hummerenweg in Baarlo. The discovery was made after information was received by the police that there were fireworks. Agents did not find fireworks, but they did find raw materials. This concerns several thousand litres.

Research
It is not a drug lab, but a storage facility for raw materials. No one has been arrested yet. The National Facility Dismantling (LFO) and forensic investigation will continue with the investigation and the seized items will be destroyed.

It is not yet clear what type of raw materials are involved and what drugs could be produced with them.
