Oklahoma fugitive wanted on drug charges nabbed in Ocala Circle K parking lot

Robert Cheston Arneecher

A fugitive from Oklahoma was arrested at an Ocala Circle K Thursday afternoon after a Marion County deputy responded to a call of suspicious activity in the minimart’s parking lot.

The person who called the deputy said that Robert Cheston Arneecher, 37, who was the driver of a vehicle in the parking lot, may have been involved in the sale of guns, a sheriff’s office report states.

A check of Arneecher’s background showed that he had an active $50,000 warrant from Rogers County, Okla.

Arneecher, who lives in Pryor, Okla. and is originally from Claremore, was taken into custody and transported to the Marion County Jail, where he was being held as an out-of-state fugitive on the original $50,000 bond.
