VIGO COUNTY, Ind – A former Vigo County Commissioner was arrested Monday night on charges of possession of meth, paraphernalia and domestic battery.

The Vigo County Sheriff’s Deputies were called to a liquor store in Riley at 7747 S. State Rd. 46 around 10:30 p.m. about a domestic situation in the parking lot.

When officers arrived, 62-year-old David Decker and a woman fled the scene in a pickup truck.
