Methamphetamine Arrest

Arrested:  McIntosh, Kathleen M; 24 year of age female, Richland address
Charges:  Possession of Methamphetamine, DUI, Criminal Trespass

Synopsis:

On 1-22-2013, at approximately 1:30 PM, officers responded to 475 Bradley Blvd. on a call of a suspicious person.  Employees at the location observed a black Mazda passenger car pull into the parking lot and a female, later identified as McIntosh, begin pulling things from the dumpster.

McIntosh was contacted inside the business.  In speaking with McIntosh it appeared that she was under the influence of a controlled substance.  In her possession was a black purse and a black backpack. When she was asked for ID she stated that she had none and did not know who the purse belonged to.  She claimed the other items in her possession belonged to a friend. McIntosh stated that she had pulled into the parking lot to dump trash into the dumpster but had no legitimate reason to be at the business.

McIntosh was detained for investigation of trespass and DUI.  The purse in her possession was opened to determine ownership and two glass meth pipes containing a small amount of methamphetamine were found inside the purse.  The search was stopped and a warrant obtained.

McIntosh was arrested for possession of methamphetamine, DUI and criminal trespass.  No other contraband was found in her possession or in her vehicle.  She was transported to Benton County jail.
