On Feb. 20, 2023 at approximately 8 a.m., a Calhoun County Sheriff’s Office deputy was on patrol in the 23000 block of J Drive S when he noticed a suspicious subject on private property. When the deputy attempted to contact the person, he ran away on foot. Upon further investigation, a door was found to have been forced open on a nearby home. Items from the house, including firearms, were placed next to a vehicle in an apparent attempt to remove them from the property.
A K9 track was conducted which led into a nearby field, where a 40-year-old Onstead man was located. He was taken into custody and lodged at the Calhoun County Jail for breaking and entering and resisting police.
Calhoun County Sheriff’s Office deputies were assisted by officers from Albion Department of Public Safety, Michigan Department of Natural Resources, and the Michigan State Police.
