Wakulla police arrest man wanted in Texas

Wakulla County Sheriff's Office investigators captured a Dixie County man Wednesday who was wanted in Texas for a sexual assault on a child. 50 year old Robert Neal Chambers of Old Town was captured on Highway 98 in Newport.

Deputy Derek Lawhon conducted a felony traffic stop and members of the Criminal Investigations Division surrounded the 1995 Mercury and arrested Chambers without incident.

Sheriff Harvey said the suspect was wanted out of Aransas County, Texas for a sex offense involving a child. Wakulla officials received information from Texas that Chambers would be coming through the area and had an outstanding arrest warrant. The warrant had been active for one year.

Officers made their arrest at 10 a.m. Wednesday and Chambers was taken to the Wakulla County Jail where he is being held for Texas law enforcement officials pending extradition.
