A real-life version of “Breaking Bad” that was playing out in China has witnessed its own “series finale.” A self-taught man, with only a middle-school education, was described by police as surpassing the skills of some organized gangs in manufacturing methamphetamine.
A man surnamed Lei was arrested Jan. 5 after establishing a methamphetamine laboratory under the stairs of his first-floor apartment in Luzhou City, Sichuan Province, according to the Chengdu Economic Daily.
