The suspect, 37-year old Wesley Annand of Medford, was allegedly seen getting into a sedan and leaving the area. Dispatch said the vehicle was reported stolen out of Grants Pass. The sedan was located by deputies traveling south on Interstate 5, and was stopped near the landfill interchange.

Annand was detained without incident and was taken into custody. He was charged with third-degree theft, unauthorized entry into a motor vehicle, possession of a stolen vehicle and for unauthorized use of a motor vehicle. Annand was detained without bail and was released later in the morning.
