A tenant reported homeless people were trespassing on a property in the 500 block of NW A Street.

The suspects were reportedly going through people's mail and rummaging through the trash. Two had left and headed back towards a nearby camp before officers with the Grants Pass Police Department arrived.

Officers contacted a suspect, Kristopher Young, and found he was wanted on two separate warrants charging him with Possession of Meth and Possession of a Schedule II Controlled Substance.

Young's identity was confirmed and he was taken into custody. Officers transported and lodged him in the Josephine County Jail on his warrants.
