A 23-year-old man was arrested in Kelowna after a bag of what is believed to be crystal meth was discovered in a Kelowna hotel lobby yesterday.

Police pinpointed a suspect who was soon after pulled over in a traffic stop, during which a search of the suspect's vehicle discovered approximately one kilogram of what is believed to be fentanyl and crystal methamphetamine.
