A Nineveh man was arrested Monday evening on various charges after a Johnson County Sheriff’s Deputy noticed suspicious behavior. Sheriff Doug Cox says that just before 6:30 p.m., Deputy Brett Davis was patrolling County Road 200 East when he spotted a scooter pull into the driveway of a pair of homes. When confronted, the driver of the scooter allegedly gave a false name several times. After repeatedly questioning the man about his name and birth date, deputies say he began giving contradictory information, leading to his arrest.

Police then learned that the scooter the man was riding had been reported stolen out of Edinburgh. During the investigation, deputies reported finding a scale with meth residue inside the scooter’s storage compartment.

When the suspect was taken to jail, they learned his identity as 34-year-old Jason Sanders. He is facing preliminary charges of Theft, False Identifying, Possession of Methamphetamine and Possession of Paraphernalia.
