CHEROKEE VILLAGE, Ark. (AP) - A sheriff in north Arkansas says he’s recovering after he was injured while serving a search warrant.
Sharp County Sheriff Mark Counts says he was hurt while serving a search warrant last Friday at a home in Cherokee Village. Counts tells Jonesboro television KAIT (https://bit.ly/2ebzIdt ) that authorities found a trap door inside a bedroom floor. The sheriff says authorities found components of a methamphetamine lab once the door was opened.
Counts says he inhaled toxic chemicals inside the home and was taken to a hospital in Batesville, but he’s since been released.
