1Opinion of the Court

LEHAN, Judge.

We affirm the trial court’s denial of defendant’s motion to suppress cocaine found on the person of defendant after a search incident to his arrest. We disagree with defendant’s argument that the police lacked probable cause to arrest defendant who was present in a house where and when a drug transaction took place and who, after being detained, was identified by an accomplice as the drug supplier.

RYDER, C.J., and CAMPBELL, J., concur.
