The warrant was served to a residence in the 400 block of 22nd street in Woodward. Carrasco was taken into custody without incident.

Also assisting with today’s search warrant were the Woodward County Sheriff’s Office, Woodward Police Department, Alfalfa County Sheriff’s Office and Dewey County Sheriff’s Office.
