Domestic Assault Felon Arrested After Located Hiding In Closet
On Saturday evening, Pettis County Deputies responded to the 1400 block of South Missouri Avenue in an attempt to make contact with a specific person who had multiple felony warrants for their arrest.
Deputies were allowed in the residence, and contacted a third-party subject in the back bedroom.
The subject, Sierra Denise Cooper, 29, of the address, told Deputies the man they were looking for was not present. Deputies quickly located him hiding in a closet in the room.
