On Monday, December 18, 2017, at 5:05 p.m., the Palo Alto County Sheriff’s Office arrested Jasper Evans (20), of Ruthven on a valid O’Brien County warrant for theft 5th degree, which is a simple misdemeanor. Bond was set in the amount of $300.00 cash or surety. Evans was unable to post bond, and was subsequently transported to the Palo Alto County Jail to await extradition to the O’Brien County Jail.
A criminal charge is merely an accusation and the defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law.
