Roseburg Police jailed a man for multiple drug charges on Saturday afternoon.

An RPD report released on Tuesday said officers contacted 33-year-old Edward Ditter in a parking lot in the 1400 block of Northwest Mulholland Drive just before 2:00 p.m. As they contacted the suspect, he began picking up items off the ground that an officer recognized as drugs.
Ditter allegedly placed the items in his pocket, concealing them from view. He was detained and was ultimately reportedly found to be in possession of approximately 62 blue pills, which appeared to be counterfeit Oxycodone pills, digital scales and a small amount of methamphetamine.

Ditter was charged with unlawful possession, distribution and manufacture of a Schedule 2 controlled substance for fentanyl, unlawful possession of methamphetamine and for tampering with evidence. After arraignment, he was detained on $3,000 bail.
