The Special Response Team deployed near Lake Contrary Thursday morning, as investigators sought out and arrested a federal firearms suspect.

Buchanan County Sheriff’s Captain Tiger Parsons of the SRT says the Drug Strike Force located the 46-year-old suspect at a home at 3511 Janston Road.

Parsons says they verified the information and applied for a search warrant, then requested assistance from the Special Response Team.

According to a news release they arrested the man without incident.  Parsons says another,  22-year-old man was taken into custody on unrelated charges.  The primary suspect is now being held in Federal custody.
