A reported parking problem led to the arrests of six people on drug-related and counterfeiting charges, Columbus police said.

Officers were sent to the 300 block of Parkway Drive about a vehicle partially in the roadway blocking mailboxes, said Lt. Matt Harris, Columbus Police Department spokesman. After checking on the vehicle, officers smelled marijuana and followed the odor to a nearby home, Harris said.

When standing next to the home’s back door, officers saw two syringes on the porch, Harris said. After securing a search warrant, officers entered the home and recovered several glass pipes, spoons and cups with methamphetamine residue, hypodermic needles and counterfeit money, Harris said. Those arrested on preliminary charges include:
