LAFAYETTE, Ind. (WLFI) - Lafayette police asked for the public's help to find a man wanted for the possession and manufacturing of methamphetamine - and authorities got that help. He was arrested Friday morning.

44-year-old Joseph Orange was the subject of this week's Fugitive Search. Police say just before 7:30 a.m. Friday, he was arrested in a Lafayette residence.

Police say Orange is 5 feet, 8 inches tall with brown hair and brown eyes.

He is wanted on a warrant from a 2006 Possession and Manufacturing Methamphetamine investigation.

Orange is known to have residences in Tippecanoe County, and may have been arrested at one of them. He was arrested without incident and was transported to the Tippecanoe County Jail.

Anyone with information on wanted fugitives is asked to call Lafayette police at 807-1200 or the anonymous WeTip Hotline at 1-800-78-CRIME.
