        Two people wanted in Morgan County, Indiana on Felony warrants for meth and identify deception were spotted in Martin County Thursday and arrested.

        Martin County Sheriff’s Department Corporal Tyler Reed was on patrol in Loogootee at midnight Thursday and he saw the two in a vehicle with out of county plates.  In a news release, Reed says he knew the vehicle belonged to 36-year-old Vincent Demoss of Elletsville and he knew Demoss often travelled with 29-year-old Brittany L. Johnson of Loogootee. 

        Reed learned of the Felony warrants and Police from Loogootee, Martin County and the Jasper State Police post tried to make contact at a home where the two were believed to be but there was no answer.  Police watched the home until 6:30-am Thursday and Corporal Reed saw a car leave. He confirmed from the driver that Demoss and Johnson were in the home with another adult and a minor.   Officers put together a safetu plan to get the adult and child out before making entry to the home.  When officers did enter the two were arrested without incident.
