LANCASTER -- Two children were taken into protective custody after police claim to have found a meth lab inside their home.
The Lancaster home was raided Wednesday by Fairfield County's Street Crime Reduction Apprehension (SCRAP) Unit.
Officers said two young children -- ages 8 and 10 -- were living in the home with 3 adults.
Tamala Lynn Queen and Shawn Jafarzrdeh were arrested in connection with the raid; each faces charges of making meth and endangering children.
Queen and Jafarzrdeh are both in the Fairfield County Jail; their bail amounts have each been set at $200,000.
Investigators say three more people may be charged in connection with the case. A sergeant told ABC 6/FOX 28 the home -- which has been condemned -- was filthy, and lacked a furnace and running water when the children were removed.
