–A Palo Alto County man is facing additional drug and weapons charges after being taken into custody early last week.
According to the Palo Alto County Sheriff’s Office, Deputies executed a pair of arrest warrants for 43-year-old Jeremy James Bowman of Ruthven around 12:15 PM on Tuesday, November 25th. The first warrant charged Bowman with Disorderly Conduct and Failure to Obey a Traffic Control Device stemming from an incident back in August.

He has also been charged with Possession of a Controlled Substance—Marijuana (1st offense) and Possession of Drug Paraphernalia, both serious misdemeanors.
