Lt. Mike Mowery, department spokesman, says that at 11:15 a.m. Deputy Cody Low served an arrest warrant on Damon Clark at 1413 Magnolia Place. While at the home, Deputy Low reported seeing a pickup truck in the driveway matching the description of vehicle reported stolen from Bishop Motor sales in Vernon on Feb. 8th. Mowery says that dispatch confirmed that the pickup, as well as the license plate displayed on it, was stolen. Deputy Low reported speaking with the subjects inside the home and arrested 25-year-old Damon Clark, of North Vernon, on his outstanding warrant.

Further investigation led Deputy Low to apply for a search warrant of the home. Mowery says that the residence was secured by assisting deputies until a search warrant could be obtained. A search warrant, signed by Circuit Court Judge Webster, was obtained shortly thereafter. A search allegedly resulted in the discovery of syringes, paraphernalia, methamphetamine, heroin and fentanyl.
