The Sheriff's Office reports deputies arrested a 36-year-old male subject at the Arco AM/PM gas station in the 100-block of NE Terry Lane on Tuesday at 3:50 p.m..

Deputies did not disclose why they pulled over the vehicle, but they identified the passenger as a subject wanted on a felony warrant issued out of the Warner Creek Correctional Facility for Parole Violation stemming from his alleged escape from a transitional leave program.
