Columbus police arrested a wanted man on drug-related charges after receiving a report of a suspicious person Tuesday evening.

Police are reporting that they were called to the 400 block of South Gladstone Avenue at about 9:20 p.m. Tuesday. That’s where they found 31-year-old Jordan E. Axsom in a vehicle and apparently under the influence of an unknown drug. They also discovered that he had a parole warrant outstanding for his arrest.
