The officer observed the attic access frame was damaged and Carter denied several times Rotsart was in the apartment.
The officer checked, however, and found Rotsart hiding behind a sofa under a blanket. He had a previous warrant for his arrest and was taken into custody.
Carter is charged with obstructing official business for harboring or concealing Rotsart.
