Authorities have accused a North Liberty man of partaking in producing meth.

Clinton Lake, 32, was charged April 1 with possession of lithium and possession of pseudoephedrine.

According to North Liberty police complaint, members of the Johnson County Drug Task Force served a search warrant at 1257 Slothower Ave. in Iowa City in April.

Methamphetamine labs and precursor materials were reportedly located and fingerprinted. Lake’s fingerprints were found on a precursor item, and a witness identified him at being at the residence during manufacture, the complaint said.

Possession of lithium is a Class-D felony. Possession of pseudoephedrine is a Class-D felony.
