A Paragould man with warrants out for his arrest was picked up Sunday morning in Gassville and is facing additional charges. Thirty-two-year-old Daniel Hoskins is in the Baxter County Detention Center with bond set at $25,000.
According to the report, a Gassville officer drove through the parking lot of a convenience store just after 10 a.m. and observed a male standing next to a vehicle at a gas pump. The male was reportedly trying to hide his face. The officer ran the license plate and determined through investigation the male was Hoskins.
