Authorities are seeking the public’s help in locating a wanted fugitive out of Lewis County, Wash., Linn County Sheriff Bruce Riley said Wednesday.
Law enforcement personnel in Washington say Derral “Kenny” Mosby broke into a house near the rest area in Ridgefield, Wash. on Thursday, March 6, and stole a vehicle. Mosby then started contacting his family via payphone in the Salem/Albany area, asking for help.
On Sunday, March 9, the Albany Police Department located the stolen vehicle, from the Washington burglary, in Albany, but were unable to locate Mosby. Both Albany Police and the Linn County Sheriff’s Office have been actively searching for Mosby.
Mosby is described as 6-feet-8-inches tall, with multiple tattoos, including an image of the sun on his right arm, and a lady on his left arm. He is last known to be on a bicycle in the Knox Butte area near the Linn County Fairgrounds. He has multiple felony warrants.
Authorities in Lewis County are advising to use caution because Mosby is often armed with a knife and firearm.
Anyone with information on Mosby’s location is asked to call 9-1-1.
