PROVO, Utah (AP) — Authorities say a 41-year-old Washington state man will be returned in custody to Utah to face a felony drug charge following his arrest a Seattle-area airport.
The Daily Herald of Provo reported that Brigham John Burr of Olympia, Wash., was arrested Tuesday when he arrived at SeaTac on a flight from Amsterdam, Netherlands.
Burr was being held by Port of Seattle police pending transfer to Utah.
Records show Burr was sought on a warrant issued Aug. 11 in Provo after he missed court on a drug possession with intent to distribute charge stemming from a Utah County arrest in February.
