Good Samaritan helped in arrest of man found to have meth, stolen items

Saskatoon police say a Good Samaritan helped in the arrest of a 52-year-old man in possession of stolen items and meth on Friday.

A motorist waved down a patrol officer near Attridge Drive at Kenderdine Road shortly before 8 p.m. CT. He said security personnel from a nearby business were chasing another man and was able to point him out to the officer.

Police confronted the man in question and found him to be in possession of stolen goods from several businesses in the area. He was then arrested.

The 52-year-old man is facing charges of possession of stolen property, theft, and possession of meth. He also had five unrelated warrants for his arrest.

He was expected to be brought before a judge on Saturday morning.

No injuries were reported.
