MASON CITY – There was trouble just north of the Cultural Crescent, as a convicted drug offender fled cops and was soon caught with the powerful, addictive drug methamphetamine.
Friday night, July 31 at just before midnight, a Cerro Gordo deputy located a wanted drug offender on a bicycle near the 700 block of North Adams Avenue. However, the suspect, 35-year-old Tyrel James Finger of Mason City, attempted to flee the pursuing deputy. He was soon caught and arrested.
Finger was wanted on a warrant for driving while barred. He was also charged with interference with official acts, possession with intent to deliver methamphetamine and 3rd offense possession of marijuana. He remains jailed on $104,000 cash bond as he awaits an August 7 court date.
