Grants Pass Police arrested a man on a local warrant early yesterday after getting a trespassing complaint at a Dutch Bros coffee stand in the south part of the city.

The Police Department reports officers responded to the incident at the Dutch Bros in the 600-block of Redwood Highway on Thursday around 9:30 a.m..

Police said they detained 26-year-old Nick Dustin Farmer after he vandalized a Dutch Bros menu board by writing miscellaneous words on it with a marker. He left the scene, but the incident was captured on video surveillance. However, a Dutch Bros regional manager declined to pursue charges against him.

Farmer was wanted on a Grants Pass warrant for failing to appear in court for 3rd-Degree Theft and 2nd-Degree Criminal Trespass. He was eventually tracked down at an Options for Southern Oregon facility on Harbeck Road where he removed a "wet floor" sign and started walking away with it.

Farmer was placed into custody and lodged in jail on the warrant. He was also trespassed from all Dutch Bros locations in Josephine County.
