"They pointed out to the deputies outside where the 'suspects' were, climbing into a boat and getting away," sheriff's spokesman David Ehsanipoor said. "There was no one there, and deputies realized the two men were hallucinating."

He said investigators discovered a meth lab at the residence and the men were arrested.

Austin, who was found to be carrying additional drugs on his person, was charged with manufacturing methamphetamine, possession of methamphetamine and crossing a guard line with a controlled substance.
