Man with stuck truck is taken to jail on Sunday

A truck stuck in the mud led to a trip to jail for a local man Sunday afternoon.

Around 4:45 p.m., Cowley County Sheriff deputies headed to the 9000 block of 71st Rd., northeast of Winfield, for the report of a vehicle stuck on a muddy township road. Deputies had to walk a mile just to get to the site of the incident, according to a report.

While there they met up with Jacob Mitchell Engstrom, 24, Wichita, and a female who were waiting with the vehicle. Investigators eventually learned Engstrom was wanted for five outstanding failure to appear warrants in Winfield Municipal Court.

He was arrested but later released on $1,205 bond.

The unidentified female was given a ride into Winfield.

A family member was contacted to retrieve the truck.
