While our officers were examining the substance a different staff member approached and stated that the wallet belonged to him. Our officers were certain that someone would not approach them and claim an item that contained drugs so they asked the man what was in the baggie. He immediately replied, “That's methamphetamine.†Our officers were certain that someone would not claim ownership of an illegal substance to a peace officer so they asked the man if the methamphetamine belonged to him.
