(KNOX) – 22 wanted individuals were apprehended Tuesday during a county-wide warrant blitz by the Grand Forks County Sheriff’s Office.
Sheriff Andy Schneider says the county has more than 3,000 active arrest warrants.
Several of these active warrants are for people who no longer reside in the state.
Grand Forks County Chief Deputy Stromberg coordinated with the clerk’s office, courts, and jail to provide a special court session for individuals arrested on their warrants.
Arrestees who gained no additional charges were allowed to appear promptly in the afternoon of the 30th.
Several others with active warrants contacted the Sheriff’s Office during the operation to arrange a date to turn themselves in.
