In the early morning hours of March 30, 2021 Norfolk Police officers were checking the welfare of a child at a residence in the 300 block of S. 11th Street.  It was believed that the small child was left unattended.  When officers arrived, they found the front door to the home open and only the screen door closed.  Officers could hear a child crying and could smell the distinct odor of marijuana in the home through the screen door.  Officers knocked and attempted contact with people inside.  An adult female came to the front door and shut the door on the officers.  Communication through the door was attempted but the female would not identify herself and not let the officers check on the child.  Officers interviewed others with knowledge of the residence and illegal drugs associated with it.  A search warrant was issued for the residence and was served at 6:10 a.m.  The child was located and turned over to the custody of its mother.  The female in the house was identified as Jennifer L. Capps, 38, of Madison.  During the search, officers recovered several pieces of drug paraphernalia including a glass pipe that tested positive for methamphetamine. The pipe was lying next to Capp’s wallet in a bedroom that she had been staying in.  A check of her history showed she had an active Platte County arrest warrant.  Capps was arrested on the outstanding warrant and for possession of a controlled substance.  She was housed in the Norfolk City Jail and later transferred to the Madison County Jail

A check of his license showed that it was currently under suspension.  The officer asked Guyton to step out of the vehicle and explained that he was under arrest for driving under suspension.  Guyton became upset and refused to place his hands behind his back to be handcuffed.  When the officer took his wrist, he pulled away and resisted having handcuffs placed on him.  The officer was eventually able to secure him in handcuffs.  In a subsequent search, officers recovered two clear capsule pills filled with a white powdery substance in his front sweatshirt pocket. The powder tested positive for methamphetamine/MDMA.  Guyton was arrested for driving under suspension, resisting arrest and possession of a controlled substance.
