One of the men who went armed to the wrong house to retrieve an allegedly stolen rifle and was found guilty last week of aggravated assault by a Baxter County Circuit Court jury was back in court Monday.

On Monday, 31-year-old Greg Garreans appeared before Circuit Judge John Putman and pled guilty to charges in an open drug case.

He was sentenced to four years in prison to run concurrent with the prison sentence handed down in the assault case.

DRUG CASE

In the drug case, Garreans arrest came last year. According to the probable cause affidavit, he was a passenger in a car that followed a U-Haul van into a location on 16th Street.

A Mountain Home Police Department (MHPD) officer followed the vehicles and checked the two females in the van and the two males in the car, including Garreans.

Garreans was found to have two active arrest warrants – one from MHPD and one from Marion County. He was taken to jail on the warrants.

Drug charges were filed when suspected methamphetamine was found in the area of the car where Garreans had been sitting.
