Dustin Jones, who was wanted for a felony warrant with no bond was arrested today after an undercover Deputy contacted Jones about buying a truck Jones was trying to sell on the internet. Deputies were able to locate Jones because Jones thought the undercover Deputy was someone from Joplin interested in buying the truck. The undercover Deputy was taken to an undisclosed location in the Richards area where the undercover Deputy verified the person was in fact Jones. As multiple Sheriff's vehicles began pulling up, the undercover deputy told Jones who he was and Jones then tried to run away but was apprehended shortly after running.
After Jones was in custody, Deputies found drug paraphernalia, and a small bag of crystal meth on Jones. Jones is being held in the Vernon County Jail on a no-bond warrant. The Office plans to submit charges of resisting arrest, assault on a law enforcement officer, and possession of a controlled substance.
