Police were at the Rest Inn motel at 7475 E. Admiral Place investigating a failure to appear warrant of a suspect named Chance Pruett when they discovered Cannon in the room and arrested her, TPD said. 

Police were clearing the motel room and found Cannon hiding inside the bed frame with the drugs and recognized her as a suspect in a Rogers County homicide, police said. 

A stolen Lexus SUV was discovered in the parking lot and was linked to Cannon by reviewing surveillance video at the motel, TPD said. 

She was arrested for possession of a stolen vehicle, drugs possession, a Creek County warrant and the Rogers County first-degree murder warrant, according to police.
