Police officers from the Plymouth Police Department and the Marshall County Sheriff’s Department responded to the Economy Inn on North Michigan Street at 1 a.m. on Friday, September 25th for an unknown disturbance.
As officers arrived, they located John Matlock, known to have active warrants in room #221. When officers attempted to detain Matlock, he fought and resisted arrest. When Officer Vinson detained Matlock, he located Methamphetamine on his person.
Matlock was transported to the Marshall County jail and booked on the two active warrants, and new charges of resisting law enforcement and possession of methamphetamine.
