Thanks to calls from the public, police arrested an allegedly drug-affected man with a commercial quantity of methamphetamine in his car at West Lakes last night.
Just after 6pm on Thursday 20 May, patrols attended the car park of a fast food outlet at West Lakes after numerous calls from the public concerned about a man driving under the influence who was now asleep at the wheel of a parked car.
A search of the man's car allegedly revealed approximately 130 grams of a substance believed to be methamphetamine.
The 38-year-old Campbelltown man was arrested and charged with driving under the influence, driving unlicensed, breach of bail and trafficking in a commercial quantity of a controlled drug.
He was refused police bail and will appear in the Port Adelaide Magistrates Court today.
The BMW sedan was seized for further forensic examination.
Police wish to thank the community for their assistance in this matter and encourage the reporting of suspicious behaviour to police on 131 444 or Triple Zero (000) in an emergency.
