From Local Sources
LAWRENCE COUNTY -- A Bedford man is in jail on outstanding warrants and resisting charges.
Police received a tip that 39-year-old Travis East was at a home on Lafayette Avenue in Lawrence County. He was wanted on warrants.
Officers found East in a back bedroom of the home. They say the suspect failed to comply so a police K-9 was called in.
That dog was deployed and East was taken into custody.
Police say, in all, he had 5 outstanding warrants.
East was treated at the scene then to the hospital… that’s standard protocol.
He’s being held on those warrants and on a charge of resisting law enforcement.
