PULASKI COUNTY, MO -- Just before noon Sunday deputies in Pulaski County were called to the Oasis Truck Port near Richland, Missouri.

Employees called police because a man appeared to be confused or distraught in the parking lot. Employees gave police the man's license plate number and it matched a stolen vehicle out of Lebanon, Missouri.

The man was reported to be armed and possibly on his way to St. Louis to kill his wife.

The 30 year old man was taken into custody without incident. No names have been released and it's not yet known if the man will face any charges.
