Iowa City Police say a transient who was high on meth wandered into an active car wash and couldn’t find his way back out.
Officers were called to Casey’s on Scott Court just before 4:15 Saturday afternoon for a subject walking around inside the car wash while a car was being cleaned. Investigators say the subject in question, identified as 38-year-old Dustin Young, showed signs of being “extremely” high on meth. Young required an officer’s assistance in leaving the car wash.
Once outside, Young reportedly gave police two false names before revealing his true identity. A meth pipe and two baggies of meth were reportedly found on his person upon his arrest. Police say Young later admitted to being high on meth he had just purchased.
Young is charged with Possession of a Controlled Substance, Possession of Drug Paraphernalia, Providing False Identity Information and Public Intoxication. If convicted on all charges, he faces a maximum of 15 months in jail.
