The Vallejo Fire Department have removed hazardous materials, including a five-gallon bucket of methamphetamine, at the Vallejo Inn on Wednesday afternoon.
At approximately 1:40 p.m., the department arrived at the venue located at 444 Tennessee Street and found the unidentified hazardous material inside the five-gallon bucket, which warranted a full HazMat response. The property was then evacuated to ensure the safety of occupants and roads were closed off nearby soon after.
The Solano County Hazardous Materials Team conducted entry operations and tested the material, which was identified as methamphetamine. The material has been safely secured, and all roadways have reopened. Emergency personnel remain on scene to oversee the safe disposal of the hazardous material.
According to the Vallejo Fire Department, there is no threat to the general public at this time. This incident is transitioning toward mitigation, and crews will remain until disposal operations are complete.
