ASHLEY â An Indianapolis man and Michigan woman are behind bars in the DeKalb County Jail after an early morning incident at the Ashley Deli on S.R. 4 in Ashley, Indiana State Police said.
The couple were alleged to have brandished a handgun toward a gas station employee before fleeing the business in their vehicle. State troopers apprehended the couple a short time later at another gas station in Auburn.
The incident began shortly after 7:30 a.m. Friday, as Indiana State Trooper Wes Rowlader pulled into the Ashley Deli to fill his gas tank. Rowlader noticed a white Toyota passenger car leaving the lot âin a hurryâ as he pulled in, with a gas station employee close behind waving to get his attention, then reporting what had just occurred.
