Traffic Stop Leads To More Serious Trouble - WOWT

A Cass County sheriff’s deputy made the stop of a 2003 GMC Sonoma with Oklahoma license plates along the northbound lane of Highway 75 south of Murray. Sheriff William Brueggemann says the deputy was immediately contacted by the driver who was eventually identified as 39-year-old Daniel Paul Reese of Moore, Oklahoma. Reese advised the deputy he was looking for an antique shop to sell off some antiques but several things made the deputy suspicious. The Cassgram reports a passenger in the vehicle was later identified as 29-year-old Chelcy Pinson of Oklahoma City. A VIN check was run and it was learned that the vehicle was stolen out of Indiana and that both persons in the vehicle were wanted suspects. It was determined later that Reese had given a false date of birth too to avoid being found as a parole violator from the state of Oklahoma, said Brueggemann. Both occupants were taken into custody and booked for possession of a stolen vehicle, false reporting and for fictitious plates. The plates were from another GMC pickup and the sheriff’s department believes they were using those plates to help avoid being caught.
