An Owen County couple found themselves in jail early Tuesday morning after they were found processing a deer they had shot from a vehicle the evening before.

These arrests were made possible from a tip received and the efforts of District 5 officers. When Indiana Conservation Officers Cole Hollingsworth, Matt Vossmer, and Kenton Crews arrived at the suspected residence, they witnessed the couple running from the scene. After a foot pursuit both suspects were placed into custody.

Suspect names were not available in the initial report.

The deer was donated to a local family so it did not go to waste.

The firearm was seized as evidence of the crime. Both individuals are facing multiple criminal charges related to the incident.
