Belleville police officers ended up getting more than they bargained for when they located a wanted man in a North Front Street bar early this morning (Tuesday).
The man was wanted by police for skipping a court appearance but during the arrest officers found a bag with about $20,000 worth of cocaine and methamphetamine in it.
The 24-year-old Belleville man is in custody pending a bail hearing.
Meanwhile, city police are investigating the theft of a large number of tires after suspects cut a hole in a fence surrounding an Airport Parkway address.
The value of the stolen tires is estimated at around $5,000.
