A man suspected of possessing more than 300 grams of methamphetamine was arrested in San Francisco over the weekend after authorities said he left a backpack full of illegal drugs in a rideshare vehicle. <\/p>\n
Jessie Ottman-Combs, 41, of Sacramento, was charged with possession of methamphetamine, possession of drug paraphernalia, and transportation or sale of methamphetamine and booked into the San Francisco County jail, the San Francisco Police Department said. <\/p>\n
Ottman-Combs is set to be arraigned on Thursday, court records show.<\/p>\n
Authorities were first tipped off to the crime a little after 2 p.m. Sunday, when San Francisco police were alerted to suspected narcotics in a backpack left in a rideshare vehicle. <\/p>\n
