Deputies Capture Tarkio Man After Woman Yells To Motorists That Someone Is Trying To Kill Her

SIDNEY – A Tarkio, Mo., man was arrested in Fremont County Thursday after witnesses called sheriff deputies saying a woman was yelling that someone was trying to kill her.

A Fremont County K9 conducted a search of the vehicle and the sheriff says additional charges are expected.

Yost  was also out of jail on bond in connection to a burglary arrest in Page County.
