Search underway on North Hill |
|
7:47 p.m. November 19, 2017 |
Law enforcement personnel are continuing the
search for a man believed to have a nation-wide
no-bond felony warrant for his arrest after the
individual bailed out of a vehicle sought by
Idaho State Police at about 4 p.m. today on the
North Hill and has so far evaded those searching
the area around the Boundary County Landfill.
The man, who has not yet been positively
identified, is described as being about
26-years-old, of medium build with a slight
beard, wearing blue jeans, light colored shoes,
a red t-shirt with a dark long sleeve shirt
underneath.
The individual is believed at this time to be
moving through the woods east toward Highway 95.
Those who live on the North Hill, from the
Kootenai River north to Moon Shadow Road, are
advised to remove your keys from all vehicles
and lock the doors, and to keep the doors and
windows to your home locked. If you see anyone
fitting this description, do not attempt to
capture him but call the sheriff's office, (208)
267-3151. extension 0 -- if you hear anyone
trying to gain entry into a vehicle or your
home, call 911.
Law enforcement believes this individual may try
to hitch a ride or commandeer a vehicle if he
gets the opportunity. Motorists traveling in the
area from the Kootenai River bridge north to
Three Mile are advised not to stop for anyone,
and if you do need to pull over, to lock the
doors on your rig.
Updates on this incident as they happen are
being posted on our
Facebook page.
The individual who was the subject of a search
on the North Hill this evening is in custody
after he was reported entering the Three Mile
Store. He fled the store west across Highway 95
as officers approached, but was caught and taken
into custody at about 8:18 p.m. without
incident. |
