One local family spoke to the group of suspects before calling deputies after seeing the TV report on the news.
“Our guys are doing their jobs and because of the news media and all of that, it got done fast,” Rocky Maddox said.
Both men face a variety of charges including drug possession, resisting arrest and tampering with a motor vehicle.
