Columbus police say they picked up a wanted man after he was seen in a store Wednesday.

39-year-old Jayson C. George was arrested at a store in the 1800 block of North National Road at just after 4 p.m. Wednesday afternoon on three outstanding Bartholomew County warrants.

Officers searched George while he was being arrested and allegedly found a syringe containing methamphetamine. That led to new charges for possessing those.

The Bartholomew County warrants were for failing to appear in court on charges of battery, possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia.
