The Adams County Sheriff’s Office has released a report on arrests that took place over the past week. Authorities say John Pace, Jr., was arrested Wednesday on an active warrant for Failure to Appear on the original charge of Felon in Possession of a Firearm, OWI 2nd Offense, Driving While Barred, two Counts of Possession of a Controlled Substance, and Possession of Drug Paraphernalia.

At around 8:40-p.m. on Nov. 15th, Adams County Deputies conducted a traffic stop on a vehicle operated by Apolonio Yzaguirre. During the course of the traffic stop, K9 Baxo was deployed and gave a positive alert to the odor of narcotics. A probable cause search was conducted. Upon further investigation, Yzaguirre was placed under arrest for Possession of Drug Paraphernalia (meth pipe), Carrying Weapons (brass knuckles), and Possession of Ammunition by a Prohibited Person.

Later in the same night, Adams County and Taylor County Deputies executed a search warrant in the 200 Block of East Michigan Street where Yzaguirre resides. Deputies located two firearms, ammunition, and drug paraphernalia. Additional charges are pending in Taylor County.

And, two women were arrested on warrants for Failure to Appear in court. Ashley Wood, of Shenandoah, was arrested Monday, and Shanda Kile, of Creston, was arrested last Saturday.
