A man is facing multiple drugs and weapons charges after failing to pay for a ride on Edmonton transit.

On Oct. 7, transit peace officers detained a man who had no proof of payment at the Capilano transit terminal.

Police were called and it was determined there was a warrant for the man's arrest.

A search conducted after his arrest turned up a gun and more than $600 worth of drugs.

He is now facing 10 weapons and drug-related charges.
