The Washington County sheriff’s department has a new interdiction unit and it is already paying off. Two stolen cars have been recovered and two runaway juveniles have been taken into custody. The two were driving a stolen 1996 Oldsmobile when they were seen committing a traffic violation. The unit attempted to stop a 2006 dodge stratus that was reported stolen from Johnson City but the driver fled. The vehicle was later abandoned on A.J. Willis road in Jonesborough. Investigators then discovered electronics, tools, camping and fishing gear inside that was later returned to the victims. Sheriff Ed Graybeal says they have outstanding felony warrants for Andy Jones and information can be called in at 423.788.1414. (bg)
