A Parsons man is arrested for a failure to appear warrant after claiming his lost wallet.

The Parsons Police Department arrested 33-year-old Justin Dale Ard for the warrant and new charges of possession of methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia and five counts of violation of the Offender Registration Act. The arrest followed an incident where Ard's wallet was found at a local business and was turned into the police department as found property.

Ard came to PPD to collect his wallet, at which point he was arrested for the active warrant. During the arrest, methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia were found in his possession. Further investigation revealed that Ard was non-compliant with his registered offender status, stemming from a conviction for conspiracy to manufacture controlled substances in Oklahoma.
