In a weekend update, Jefferson County authorities described the suspect who was the center of a manhunt Friday as a “very dangerous individual.” Shawn Robert Arrants was taken into custody in Jefferson County, on a federal warrant, following an area wide search that prompted a stay in place order for residents in the Comet area from High Ore Road east to Depot Hill Road, and down to Interstate 15. The warrant states that Arrants had received stolen firearms in violation of his probation.
