A man who was arrested Thursday afternoon in Fremont County was no stranger to authorities. Sheriff Kevin Aistrope reports when Deputies arrested 23-year old Joseph William Michael Haughton, of Hamburg, at around 4:07-p.m., it was the seventh time he’d been arrested since January, 2017, and the second time this week.

Haughton was previously arrested by the Clarinda Police Department on 09/06/2017. On Thursday, he was taken into custody on a Fremont County warrant for Violating a Protection Order.

Haughton was placed under arrest for Interference with Official Acts as well as the active warrant. Haughton was being held at the Fremont County Jail without bond.
