A Lincoln Parish deputy who stopped to help some motorists discovered one of the men was wanted on felony warrants.
The deputy saw an apparent motorist in distress on U. S. 167 in Vienna about 11:00 p.m. Tuesday night. A check of the license plate of the vehicle showed the registered owner was wanted by the Ouachita Parish Sheriff’s Office.
The warrants for Philip Daniel Ford, 31, of Choudrant, were confirmed and he was placed under arrest.
Ford was booked at the Lincoln Parish Detention Center for identity theft and bank fraud and held for Ouachita Parish authorities.
