A local man was arrested at a Columbus motel on Wednesday night. Lt. Matt Harris, spokesman for the Columbus Police Department, says that at approximately 7:30 p.m. officers found 45-year-old Gregory T. Wright, of Columbus, at the motel in the 100 block of Carrie Lane. He says that Wright was wanted on an outstanding warrant. During the arrest, officers allegedly found Wright in possession of a small amount of methamphetamine, drug paraphernalia and a debit card that was reported stolen during a funeral held at a Columbus church last month.

In addition to the warrant, Wright was booked in the Bartholomew County Jail on preliminary charges of Possession of Methamphetamine, Possession of Stolen Property and Possession of Drug Paraphernalia.
