Officials with the Stuart Police Department report that on Saturday, October 19th, at approximately 1:13- P.M., Stuart Officers were dispatched to 615 SW 7th St. Apt #1 on reports of three people breaking into an apartment and climbing through a window. This is the same apartment where two days prior, a shooting had occurred between police and a wanted person.

A Stuart officer contacted two males who were leaving the apartment. Both males told the officer they were there to collect belongings for a friend and that they were the only two at the apartment. Upon further investigation it was determined that a female, later identified as, Amanda Comly, of Stuart, was inside the apartment hiding in a back bedroom. The officer had knowledge that Comly was wanted on a state-wide extraditable warrant.

Officers were able to convince Comly to exit the apartment on her own where she was then taken into custody without incident. Comly was transported to the Adair County Jail by the Adair County Sheriff’s Department to be held for the originating county.
