The Cass County Drug Task Force, Red River Valley SWAT Team and the Fargo Police Department, executed the warrant around 6 a.m. at a residence on 14th Street South.
Officers arrested 50-year-old Deshun Jones on multiple outstanding warrants, that includes a probation violation related to fourth-degree assault and a Clay County warrant for fleeing a peace officer in a motor vehicle.
