EVANSVILLE, IN (WFIE) - An Evansville man is arrested after mall officials say they found him getting high.

Evansville police say they were called to Eastland Mall around 8:00 Wednesday night to investigate reports that Tristan Matthews, 21, had been huffing inside the mall.

Evansville police say Matthews had a warrant out for his arrest. 

When they arrived, police say they found Matthews wandering around outside.

A search of Matthews coat produced a can of computer duster and 19 Xanax, police say in a report.

When they arrived at the jail, police say they found two straws and a razor blade. 

They say in the report that evidence suggests that Matthews had been snorting the pills.

Matthews is charged with inhaling toxic vapors and possession of drugs and paraphernalia.
