HUNT FOR SECRET PRISON DRUGS LAB

Jail chiefs race to stop production of super-strong Spice behind bars

LAGS are cooking up new strains of zombie drug Spice 20 times stronger than the regular type.

A prison report revealed the Breaking Bad-style operation is taking place in a secret lab behind bars.

And jail chiefs are now scrambling to shut it down before the new crystal form of the drug wreaks havoc.

Spice, which can contain rat poison and solvents like glue, paint and cleaning fluids, is often smoked in a joint, cannabis-style.

But enterprising lags have found a way to turn it into crystals and make it stronger by adding more chemicals just like in Netflix series Breaking Bad, where a chemistry teacher sets up his own make-shift methamphetamine lab.
