The suspected leader of an Athens/Perry County drug ring was apprehended Friday after two weeks on the run, the Athens County Prosecutor’s Office announced.
Roger Rutter, 50, of Glouster, was indicted in March on second-degree felony charges of engaging in a pattern of corrupt activity and aggravated possession of drugs. A release from the prosecutor’s office said Rutter was aware there was a warrant out for his arrest because a post requesting information on his whereabouts was shared by his Facebook account.
