Grants Pass Police jailed a man on two local felony warrants after a weekend patrol check at a city park.

The Police Department reports officers arrested 31-year-old Justin Matthew Webber at Riverside Park on Saturday at 9:25 p.m..

Police said they contacted Webber as a potential suspect in a case they were investigating, ran his information through dispatch and discovered that there were two valid and serviceable warrants for his arrest.

Webber was wanted on a Josephine County felony warrant for Failure to Register as a Sex Offender and a Grants Pass warrant for failing to appear in court for the same crime. He had been out of compliance with his registration since June 2019.

After the warrants were confirmed, Justin Webber was lodged at the Josephine County Jail without bail.
