— A 30-year-old Tacoma man was arrested in the area of Roop and Telegraph Thursday morning on the charge of an ex-felon failing to register.
Deputies were patrolling when they saw a vehicle stopped in the middle of the roadway on Roop north of Musser Street. The vehicle had its flashers on and there were people getting in and out of the vehicle to deliver phone books. There were several vehicles that were stopped behind the van with the flashers on, according to the report.
The vehicle was driving slowly up the street with the passenger side sliding door open. Deputies stopped the vehicle at 7-11 and met with the driver and two passengers.
The driver was highly uncooperative and received a citation.
One of the passengers was identified as the 30-year-old. He had a driver’s license that showed an address in Federal Way, and he said he’d lived there for approximately 2 years. He said he lived at the residence with his cats.
A records check showed the man as an ex-felon registered at different locations. He was arrested for an ex-felon failing to register, and possession of a controlled substance. He was transported to the jail without incident.
