A man wanted on a previous drug charge apparently thought hiding in a closet would keep him from being arrested.

He thought wrong.

On Tuesday Lawrence County sheriff’s deputies arrested Christopher Gray, 28, after finding him hiding in a bedroom closet at a home in Imboden.

Also arrested was the homeowner, 50-year-old Colynda Lyons.

According to Sheriff Jody Dotson, both Lyons and Gray are charged with possession of a controlled substance (meth and marijuana) and possession of drug paraphernalia.  Lyons is also charged with hindering apprehension.

"I drink a ton of water and I won't let myself go without getting in some shade for very long," said Jessica Waldrupe.

If she knows her and her son will be out in the heat, she'll make sure to give him what he needs to stay hydrated.
