Two Easley residents arrested

The police in Seneca have arrested two Easley residents as the result of an incident last week that involved a parked vehicle behind an office complex at 123 and SC 130. Announcement by Chief John Covington says multiple charges have been placed against Wayne E. Drost and Christine S. Head.  The police say they found Drost and Head nearby at a By-Pass motel.  But, as one of the suspects left the parking lot in a car, two Sene a squad cars were struck–one of which was occupied by an officer.  That prompted a chase. According to Covington, charges in the case include receiving/possession of stolen goods, breaking into a motor vehicle, resisting arrest with a deadly weapon, failure to stop for a blue light, and other driving-related offenses.
