A local man wanted on a warrant on an initial meth-related charge is behind bars. Lt. Matt Harris, spokesman for the Columbus Police Department, says that officers from CPD’s Intelligence Led Policing Unit followed up on a tip which led to them to 51-year-old George C. Moore, of Columbus.

Authorities say that Moore had a local failure to appear warrant for his arrest for sentencing on a charge of dealing methamphetamine. Moore was at 10:15 p.m. on Wednesday night in a car on South Lincoln Village Drive. While searching Moore, officers allegedly found methamphetamine and marijuana. In addition to the warrant, Moore was booked in the Bartholomew County Jail on preliminary charges of Possession of Methamphetamine and Possession of Marijuana.
