A Myrtle Creek man was jailed for warrants after being located by a police K9 Wednesday night.

A Douglas County Sheriff’s Office report said at 6:00 p.m. a deputy observed a man in the 100 block of Carte Lane in the Myrtle Creek area as he took off running and retreated into a residence. Between one and two hours later, the homeowner called and said the suspect was still in the residence and was refusing to leave.

Three deputies responded to the home along with K9 Zoro. K9 Zoro located the suspect hiding underneath about 4 feet of clothing in a side bedroom. Once found, the 30-year old was cooperative and was taken into custody.

The suspect was detained without bail.
