A man was arrested on suspicion of destroying equipment at a hotel in Jeonju, North Jeolla Province, after injecting methamphetamines, an illegal stimulant drug, police said Tuesday.
Police found a used syringe at his hotel room, they said.
According to police, the man, 67, identified only by his surname Park, started yelling and breaking furniture in his room at 4.30 p.m. on Saturday.
When police arrived, the suspect reportedly slurred his words and could not control his body movements.
The man denied taking drugs, but a preliminary test of his urine and hair tested positive.
