gunshot wound to his leg. Officers then made contact with a 21 year old male who advised

warrants. David Earl Christopher, 42, of Paris, was found to have a parole violation
warrant, a bond surrender warrant on a felony theft case, and two felony theft warrants.
The two case warrants stem from reports where Christopher had sold a camper trailer to
