Two suspects are wanted in conjunction with a suspected methamphetamine lab.
Donnie Saucier, chief investigator with the Pearl River County Sheriff’s Department, said as investigators were responding to a complaint of possible methamphetamine manufacturing at 2 Sandy Hill Rd. a car pulled up.
In that car were two males and a female. The males were identified to be Christopher Neal, 25, no known address, and Jonathan Kenmar, 26, of 2 Sandy Hill Rd., and the female was identified as Jennifer Cuevas, 22, of 2 Sandy Hill Rd.
Saucier said both Kenmar and Neal fled on foot upon seeing the investigators. However, Cuevas stayed in the vehicle. A search warrant was secured for the residence and Neal’s vehicle. A search of the home found multiple precursor chemicals and a bottle of methamphetamine oil, which is a byproduct of the manufacture of the drug. Multiple precursor chemicals also were found in the trunk of Neal’s vehicle.
Cuevas was charged with possession of precursor chemicals and manufacture of methamphetamine. Neal and Kenmar are wanted by the Sheriff’s Department on the same charges. Any information about their whereabouts should be directed to Investigator Rob Williams by calling 601-403-2500.
