Police found what appeared to be the makings of a lab and teams from Multnomah County and Gresham began clearing the scene.

Neighbors were evacuated and police helped them find housing until the apartment could be inspected for contamination.

Deputies interviewed the tenant at the scene, but no arrests have been made.
