On Wednesday, a routine investigation led to the arrest of a Pulaski County man.

44-year-old Christopher Sams was wanted on a Parole Violation warrant. Deputies received information that Sams was residing at a house on Mark Street and decided to investigate.

Upon arriving at the residence, deputies saw a man run inside from the yard. They contacted the property owner, who granted them permission to search the house. Inside, they found Sams hiding under a bed. Despite verbal commands, Sams refused to come out and had to be physically removed. During a search of his person, Deputy Noah Wesley found suspected methamphetamine in Sams’ pocket.

Christopher Sams was arrested and charged with resisting arrest, possession of a controlled substance (methamphetamine), and parole violation. He was transported to the Pulaski County Jail.
 

Deputy Dylan West, Sergeant Alex Wesley, Lieutenant Richard Smith, and Deputy Grant Bryant assisted at the scene.
