An Attleboro man was arrested after police said they discovered a meth lab inside his house.

Attleboro Police said they got a call earlier Sunday with reports of someone overdosing in the house on Knight Avenue. When they arrived on the scene, police said they found a meth lab inside the house.

The overdose victim was taken to the hospital and the entire neighborhood was evacuated out of safety. The bomb squad and hazardous materials crew were both called in and removed evidence from the house. The scene has since been cleared and people were allowed back into their homes.

The man was treated at the hospital and released before he was arrested. Police said he was charged with making meth and more charges could be coming.
