(KNZA)--A report from a concerned citizen leads to the arrest of two in Brown County.

Brown County Sheriff John Merchant, in a news release, says the investigation began early Friday morning following a report of a suspicious vehicle in a Morrill roadway.

A deputy responded and located the vehicle, with its lights off while stopped in the road.

Merchant says two occupants were arrested after the deputy spoke with them.

22-year-old Nina Travis, of Falls City, faces charges of possession of meth, possession of marijuana, possession of drug paraphernalia and possession with intent to distribute.

18-year-old Garden Grove, Iowa resident Veron Nellis faces charges of possession of marijuana, possession of drug paraphernalia and criminal use of weapons.

According to Merchant, it was later learned that Nellis was wanted on a $10,000 Brown County warrant for burglary/theft.

Following their arrests, both were booked into the Brown County Jail.
