Delhi Township deputies of the Ingham County Sheriff’s Office responded to a residence in Windmill Mobile Home Park last week after receiving reports of a 15-year-old female runaway being harbored by a 26-year-old man from Delhi Township.
At approximately 9 a.m., contact was made with a 23-year-old male and 23-year-old female resident of the house who both denied the girl’s presence. Consent to search the residence was denied at the time of contact.
Throughout the day, the house was watched while the investigation continued. At about 2 p.m. a search warrant was obtained and entry into the residence was made. The 15-year-old girl was located in addition to a juvenile runaway from Jackson County.
The 26-year-old suspect and the 23-year-old male and female were arrested and are now residing at the Ingham County Jail for harboring runaways. The two female juveniles were taken back to their families in Jackson County.
