The Page County Sheriff’s Office reports one-person was arrested Tuesday evening after he tried to flag down traffic as he walked along County road J-20, about 7-miles northwest of Clarinda. A deputy noticed 31-year old Jonathan Lynn Gray, of Shenandoah was walking on the traveled portion of the road at around 8:30-p.m.  While questioning Gray, the deputy suspected the man was intoxicated. Testing resulted in Gray being taken into custody on a charge of Public Intoxication.

Gray was brought to the Page County Jail and was unable to post a $300 bond. On Wednesday, he pled guilty to the charge and was sentenced by the magistrate to two days in jail.
