27 year old Joshua Walker and 29 year old Teresa Michael were arrested at 10:15 p.m. May 7 after the vehicle they were riding in was stopped by a Deputy on Front Street in the Town of Dickinson for an expired inspection sticker.

Walker and Michael were taken into custody without incident and sent to the Broome County Jail to await extradition to Polk County, Florida.
