‘Suwon zombie’ suspect faces new warrant bid after meth found at home

A man in his 30s, identified as the subject of a viral video titled 'Suwon zombie,' is facing a new arrest warrant after police discovered methamphetamine at his home. The video, which showed the man appearing disoriented at a bus stop in Suwon, Gyeonggi Province, went viral on June 22. Authorities say the warrant application is based on allegations that the man possessed a small amount of methamphetamine and used a controlled psychotropic drug provided by an acquaintance. However, the application does not address the drug use linked to the viral incident, as police could not confirm when or where it occurred. Previous attempts to obtain warrants were rejected due to insufficient evidence. Forensic tests of his phone and a later search of his home revealed traces of drug use, though the man denies using drugs and claims the methamphetamine was already present from an earlier investigation.
