A drug-dealing tour bus driver was arrested for stealing the wallet of one of his American passengers.

Police announced the capture of Suchart Jantachot, 47 of Lopburi, Oct. 1, two days after the unidentified tourist reported that the wallet he left on a tour bus had been taken.

Police tracked the bus and Suchart to Jomtien Soi 4 where he was taken into custody with three wallets, US$460, two mobile phones and seven grams of crystal methamphetamine.

Police said Suchart confessed to taking the wallet and hiding in on the bus. He said the drugs were for his own use and to sell to other tour bus drivers.
