Carson City Sheriff's arrest log: Ex-felon busted for repeatedly soliciting motorists

A 52 year-old transient man was arrested Friday afternoon at 1:04 p.m. in the 3200 block of Market Street on misdemeanor charges of ex-felon failing to register and soliciting motorists, a Carson City Sheriff's deputy reported.

According to the arrest report, the suspect had been warned the day before by a Sheriff's sergeant about soliciting motorists.

He was found soliciting again Friday in the same place by the same officer, who stopped and questioned him.

A records check through Carson City Dispatch showed the suspect was an ex-felon out of Elko, convicted of burglary, possession of stolen property, and drugs.

He was last registered in Elko in 2016, the report said.

The suspect was aware he was supposed to register, and stated he had 10 days to do so. But from previous contact, the suspect had told officers he had been in Carson City for more than month.

He was handcuffed at that point and taken into custody, transported to the Carson City Jail for booking. Bail: $250.
