CARYVILLE, TN (WLAF) – A Campbell County Sheriffs’ Deputy and Caryville police officer teamed to make an arrest early Tuesday morning.

Deputy Shayne Wilburn and Officer Jordan Tolliver knew there was an active warrant on 23-year- old Christopher Allen Brown of Easter Lane La Follette when they received a tip that Brown might be staying at the Super 8 Motel on McGhee Blvd. The warrant was for schedule II drugs – manufacture, deliver, sale and possession.

Soon after 3:30am, the officers knocked on the door of Room 210. A woman, said to be Brown’s girlfriend, answered the door and told them that Brown was in the bathroom, according to the report from the Campbell County Sheriff’s Office. Brown was arrested without incident as he stepped out of the bathroom.
