Police arrested a man Monday after finding a mobile meth lab inside a stolen car.

A Salt Lake police officer noticed the suspicious vehicle Monday morning at 257 S. Rio Grande St. (455 West). After checking the license plate the officer approached the driver, and after searching the car also found a meth lab and small amounts of what appeared to be meth in the car, according to Sgt.
