Deputies said a corrections officer requested assistance with picking up the man who was wanted on a Grants Pass warrant for Probation Violation related to an arrest for 4th-Degree Assault. He was placed into custody and lodged in jail on a no-bail detainer.
The second incident happened on Thursday at 7:02 p.m. when deputies arrested a 48-year-old woman at a transient camp located on federal land in an unspecified area of Josephine County.
Deputies were performing a patrol check on the camp when they contacted the woman and learned that she was wanted on an Oregon State Parole Board warrant for Parole Violation stemming from a conviction for Crimes Against a Person. She was placed into custody and lodged in jail on a no-bail detainer.
