A routine trespassing complaint on the north side of Marshall County Friday morning led to the arrest of a Leesburg man after deputies discovered the vehicle in his possession had been reported stolen out of Michigan.
Marshall County Sheriff's deputies responded at approximately 8:20 a.m. on Friday, July 17th, to the 7000 block of Tulip Road for a trespassing complaint. Upon arrival, deputies contacted the property owner and the suspected trespasser, identified as Kassidy Phipps, 39, of Leesburg.
During the investigation, deputies determined that a vehicle in Phipps's possession had been reported stolen out of Michigan. Deputies also discovered that Phipps had an active warrant through Fulton County.
Phipps was transported to the Marshall County Jail and booked on a charge of theft, a Level 6 Felony. Bond was set at $1,500. The Marshall County Sheriff's Department was assisted at the scene by the Indiana Department of Natural Resources.
