BELMONT COUNTY, Ohio – On October 24, 2025, deputies with the Belmont County Sheriff’s Criminal Interdiction Unit assisted the U.S. Marshals Service (Northern District of West Virginia) in apprehending two subjects wanted on outstanding warrants.
Officials searched a residence on School Street in Neffs, Ohio, where they located John Webster Huggins Jr., 47, of Bellaire, Ohio, and Kaylee Ann Jones, 22, of Wheeling, West Virginia, hiding in the attic among the insulation.
Both Huggins and Jones were arrested and booked into the Belmont County Jail on their outstanding warrants, as well as new charges of possession of drugs, having weapons under disability, and obstructing justice.
Deputies also arrested Rayne Nichelle McGuire, 38, of Neffs, on charges of possession of meth, having weapons under disability, and obstructing justice.
Sheriff James Zusack praised the cooperation between the Belmont County Sheriff’s Office and federal authorities, noting that partnerships like this help “apprehend fugitives from the streets of Belmont County.”
