Trespassers busted with meth
On June 17, at just after 3 a.m., a Glenwood Springs police officer was on patrol in Two Rivers Park when he observed a vehicle parked on the boat ramp in the park.
As he approached the vehicle he saw the driver, 22, begin to move around and duck down in the front seat, according to the arrest affidavit.
The officer also saw two passengers stretched out in the back seat reportedly asleep.
The driver opened his door and said hello, states the affidavit. The officer told him he was trespassing. He responded that he didn’t know he was trespassing and he would leave immediately.
The officer observed a butane torch in the passenger seat and also saw a cell phone sitting on the dash with a white powdery substance on it, stated the affidavit.
The officer asked them all to step out of the car and asked about the white powdery substance on the cell phone, which he believed to be narcotics.
The passengers said they didn’t know what the substance on the phone was because they were asleep in the back, states the affidavit. The driver also responded that he was asleep in the front.
After finding a bag with a white powdery substance in it in the vehicle, the driver admitted it was methamphetamine, according to the arrest affidavit.
He was arrested for unlawful possession of a controlled substance.
