An Ohio man who was wanted on felony warrants was arrested yesterday in Western New York.
The Chautauqua County Sheriff’s Office and Lakewood-Busti Police responded to reports of an unwanted person, which turned out to be 45 year old Jason Wasson of Dayton, Ohio.
Wasson fled into the woods behind the house shortly before the police arrived, but deputies and police were able to track him for about two miles before he was located.
Wasson was taken to UPMC Chautauqua where he was treated for exposure to the cold, and then to Chautauqua County Jail.
