An area transient who failed to appear for sentencing on drug possession charges on Friday was found over the weekend and allegedly had drugs on him when arrested.
42-year-old Omar Haji Mohamud Abdiquani was reportedly found on the 1800 block of Boyrum Street Saturday morning. During a search incident to arrest, officers allegedly located 2 glass pipes containing burnt residue, a clear plastic bag containing a white crystal substance Abdiquani admitted was meth, and a small bag of marijuana.
He was taken into custody and charged with 3rd offense Controlled Substance possession and possession of Drug Paraphernalia. If convicted on Saturday’s charge, he could face over five years in prison. A possible five year sentence also awaits Abdiquani if he’s convicted on the previous charge.
