GP Police Snared Man on Local Warrants while Investigating Trespass Call

Grants Pass Police arrested a male transient on two local warrants early yesterday after finding him sleeping in front of a north-city ice cream parlor.

According to the Police Department, officers were alerted to two men -- including 36-year-old Ian Seiwell Hogue -- sleeping under blankets by Udder's Ice Cream off NE 7th Street on Monday around 3 a.m..

Police said Hogue left the area while they were checking for warrants. They said he was found to be wanted on two Grants Pass warrants for failing to appear in court for Felony Possession of Fentanyl and Possession of Methamphetamine.

Officers tracked down Hogue and placed him into custody near a marijuana dispensary. He was lodged in jail on the warrants and was being held on $20,000 bail. Both he and the other man -- identified as "Shaun Gee" -- were trespassed from Udder's.
