Opinion

ALDRICH, J.

Introduction

The People appeal from the judgment dismissing with prejudice the petition (Welf. & Inst. Code, § 602) filed against defendant Humberto O., after the trial court granted defendant’s motion to suppress (Welf. & Inst. Code, § 700.1) a dagger found during the search of his backpack. We hold that the search of the backpack worn by defendant at the time of his arrest under Education Code section 48264 1 for truancy was lawful because it was incident to defendant’s arrest. Accordingly, we reverse the judgment.
