(Gwinn, MI) – A Hell, MI native was arrested allegedly trying to flee a Gwinn, MI trailer fire that cops say was a meth lab at a Forsyth Township mobile home park.

31-year-old Brad Michael Overly, who apparently hasn’t lived in Gwinn for too long, was arrested following the mobile home fire reported at about 6:35 p.m. ET Wednesday night, March 7, 2018. Overly’s Facebook page states he is a native of Hell, MI and Clare, MI. Recent Facebook posts by overly have become increasingly dark with “wanted dead or alive” graphics, skulls and more.

The first police on the scene reported smoke coming from the trailer at 55 East Riling Street Lot 27 in Gwinn – and firefighters were warned to beware of meth components. Police busted Overly as he tried to flee the scene in his car.

The Upper Peninsula Substance Enforcement Team was called to the scene to help dispose of the toxic chemicals.

Numerous Gwinn residents have been arrested this year – and more busted are expected – as meth is running rampant in Gwinn, K.I. Sawyer and the surrounding area. This is the second fire this year involving Gwinn residents that allegedly involve meth cooking.

The jailed Overly is charged with the 20-year felony operating/maintaining laboratory involving methamphetamine.
Assisting on the scene were the Forsyth Township Fire Department and Marquette County Rescue Squad 131.

In a bizarre irony, the costly cleaning up of each U.P. Meth lab drains valuable money the UPSET team and its law enforcement partners could be put back into the fight to root out an extremely addictive epidemic that has destroyed thousands of U.P. lives.

Meth, heroin, opioids, fentanyl and other extremely addictive drugs have devastated many U.P. homes.

In many cases, its the old story of bad things happening to otherwise good people – who get in over their heads in an instant. Then however, are the meth dealers who try to get everyone hooked for their own profit.
