DeKalb cracking down on scofflaws

DeKALB – The city will issue arrest warrants for individuals who have not paid their ordinance fines to the city or are skipping their circuit court dates.

City Attorney Dean Frieders said these are people who have been found guilty of violating one of the city’s ordinances, and are either skipping their court dates or not paying their fine.

“It is a matter of we will come and find you,” Frieders said. “And you may be arrested on an arrest warrant and brought to jail until a judge determines what the appropriate outcome for the case is.”
