The Sheriff’s Office says 46-year old Michele Marie Crawford, of Van Meter, was arrested in Stuart for OWI/1st offense, after she was pulled over for having no functioning tail lights on her vehicle. Crawford later tested at .138% on the Breathalyzer at the Sheriff’s Office. Authorities also located three open containers of alcohol in her vehicle. She was later cited and released.

And, during the late evening hours of June 20th, 30-year old Jose’ Hernandez Mata, of West Liberty, was arrested by Adair County Deputies at the Johnson County Sheriff’s Office. Mata was wanted on Adair County warrants for Theft in the 1st Degree, and Driving While Barred. He was being held in the Adair County Jail on a $10,000 cash or surety bond.
