(JASPER) - The report of a disturbance Monday morning in Jasper led State Police to arrest a Saint Anthony woman on drug charges and a warrant.
At 7:36 a.m. Indiana State Trooper Brock Werne was traveling along Mill Street near 14th Street in Jasper when he saw a woman yelling at a man. Werne stopped to check on the woman, 29-year-old Lindsay Weaver of Saint Anthony. Determining she was okay and had a place to go, Werne and Weaver both left the area.
Nearly 40 minutes after speaking with Weaver, police received another report of a disturbance at Leopold and 14th streets.
Trooper Werne arrived and again found Weaver causing a disturbance at a residence.
Werne learned that Weaver had missed a court appearance Monday morning in Orange County, and later found that Weaver was wanted for failing to appear in court.
As Werne placed Weaver into handcuffs,Weaver dropped a small container containing Xanex pills, which she did not have a prescription for.
Weaver was arrested on charges of possession of a Schedule IV controlled substance and taken to the Dubois County Security Center.
State Police was assisted at the scene by officers with the Jasper Police Department.
