Yeah I could have told you this happened back home even without the town name in the title. 🧨💣

According to agents, the investigation started after firefighters were called for an explosion and structure fire. Court records said during their response on Cove Creek Drive, firefighters located a liquor manufacturing operation and contacted the Wilkes County Sheriff’s Office.

Upon arrival, NC ALE said its agents found an active 200-gallon illegal distillery and the agents seized 1,800 gallons of mash and 161 gallons of non-taxpaid moonshine. Billy Ray Anderson, 69, of North Wilkesboro was charged during the investigation.
