Lindsey William Jones, 47, of Carson City, was arrested Tuesday night in the 1900 block of North Carson Street on a warrant for felony grand larceny out of Dayton Township.
According to the arrest report, a deputy was in the area looking for two people who had run away from another deputy, when he heard a woman's voice yelling "help" and screaming unintelligibly from inside a motel room. No one answered the door, so the motel manager let the deputy inside to conduct a welfare check and found a woman on the floor, unresponsive. Also in the room was the suspect and the couple's 1-year-old baby. Jones reportedly told the deputy that his girlfriend was grossly intoxicated and he was trying to ignore her.
A check for wants and warrants found the outstanding warrant against Jones. His bail was set at $308.
While Jones was being placed in the patrol car, a grossly intoxicated 49-year-old male subject who said he was a friend of Jones came up to the car and did not leave when asked to by deputies. The subject then began yelling profanities at the deputies. He was put under arrest for misdemeanor disorderly conduct, obstructing a peace officer and an outstanding criminal contempt warrant. His bail was set at $1,802.
