REPORT: Man parked in driveway found with meth

Walter Eugene Weaver

A man claiming he was only looking for his friend’s house ended up in the wrong place, but refused to immediately leave and ended up facing charges when police came out to confront him about trespassing, per PCPD reports.

Polk County Police arrested Walter Eugene Weaver, 42, of a Rockmart-area address just after midnight on Saturday, May 11, when police found him in the driveway of a Lowery Road address halfway down the roadway.

Reports stated that Weaver claimed he was “just hanging out with a friend” but couldn’t tell police where he was. When officers ran his information through the state crime database, they found his license was suspended and took him into custody.

A search of his vehicle turned up methamphetamine, per the report.

Police questioned the man who called police on Weaver and found that he had come up the driveway thinking he was at another address, but when told he was at the wrong place he only pulled halfway down the driveway to leave and then parked. That’s when the complainant called police, the report stated.

Weaver’s vehicle was towed, and he was taken onward to the Polk County Jail and remained in custody on a felony charge of possession of methamphetamine, and a misdemeanor charge of driving while license suspended or revoked.

His bond was set at $6,000.
