Officers say that they could hear the man yelling in the basement the moment they entered the Morgans home. But when they moved cautiously into the basement they saw nothing. However they could hear banging sounds coming from behind the northern wall of the Morgan familys basement, specifically echoing from behind a large storage cabinet.

hen the Officers moved the large metal cabinet they uncovered an entry way to a large hidden room in the basement. The room was full of various science equipment along with a terrified, elderly man. The 83 year old man was identified as Dr. Winston Corrigan, a chemistry professor from the University of Minnesota who went missing in the fall of 1984 and was a previous resident of the home.

The Police recovered over $500,000 worth of lab equipment stolen from the University, along with 3 hand guns, an assault rifle, 50 years worth of military grade rations and twelve 55 gallon barrels (including three almost empty barrels) of what DEA labs have identified as pure liquid Lysergic acid diethylamide, a powerful hallucinogenic drug more commonly known as the street name LSD or Acid.

(3,747 posts)That is unbelievable. As in, I literally don't believe it. That is an absurd amount. Largest acid bust was 91lbs, and that was actually bs, as it turns out.

The story is quite similar to the plot of the movie Housebound.
