Clubb, MO — On the afternoon of Saturday, May 10, 2025, a coordinated law enforcement operation led to the successful apprehension of a man wanted on a Felony Warrant for Felony Assault. The arrest was the result of a joint effort between the Wayne County Sheriff’s Department, the Piedmont Police Department, and the Missouri State Highway Patrol (MSHP).
The operation began when Chief Sanders of the Piedmont Police Department received reliable intelligence regarding the whereabouts of Daniel J. White, a subject with an outstanding felony warrant. Chief Sanders promptly relayed the information to the Wayne County Sheriff’s Department, prompting swift interagency coordination.
Corporal Huber, a deputy with the Wayne County Sheriff’s Department, responded to the scene along with officers from MSHP. Law enforcement officers proceeded to a residence in Clubb, Missouri, where the suspect was believed to be located. Through careful planning and execution, the officers successfully located and apprehended Daniel J. White without incident.
Mr. White was taken into custody on the strength of an active Felony Warrant for Assault, issued following a previous incident. Details of the alleged assault have not been publicly disclosed at this time. The suspect was transported to the appropriate detention facility pending further legal proceedings.
Authorities have emphasized that this arrest demonstrates the importance of communication and collaboration across local and state agencies in maintaining public safety. “This was a textbook example of law enforcement agencies working together to swiftly and safely bring a dangerous situation under control,” said an official from the Wayne County Sheriff’s Department.
As the legal process unfolds, it is important to note that under the U.S. Constitution and the law, Daniel J. White is presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. The presumption of innocence is a fundamental right afforded to all individuals accused of a crime.
The Wayne County Sheriff’s Department and partnering agencies have not released further information but assured the public that more details will become available as the investigation proceeds and the judicial process moves forward.
For now, residents of Wayne County and surrounding areas can feel reassured knowing that a potentially dangerous individual has been taken off the streets, thanks to decisive and unified law enforcement action.
