Hum Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 NORFOLK, Neb. -- Colton Harris-Moore is now officially a wanted man in Nebraska. An arrest warrant released Tuesday from Madison County, Nebraska for Harris-Moore now details several break-ins, stolen cars, and attempted airplane thefts that investigators believe are connected to the infamous "Barefoot Bandit." Authorities believe the 19-year-old is responsible for stealing property worth a total of up to $1.5 million, and has been on the run since he escaped from a Renton group home in April 2008. He apparently began his trek out of the Northwest earlier in the spring, donating $100 to a Raymond animal hospital and stealing a $450,000 yacht from Illwaco, Wash. to get across the Columbia River. The yacht was recovered in Warrenton, Oregon, where police said Tuesday they used fingerprints to positively identify the thief as Harris-Moore. Harris-Moore then reportedly went about stealing more cars as he made his way toward Idaho. A few days after Harris-Moore's trail went cold in Boise, Idaho, on June 12, authorities in South Dakota noticed a vehicle with Washington plates had been abandoned in Spearfish. But now the trail leads further across the Midwest and into Illinois. Investigators are also collecting DNA samples and fingerprints from the various break-ins in an effort to conclusively tie the break-ins to Harris-Moore. In the meantime, Harris-Moore is now a wanted man in Madison County, Nebraska, for investigation of burglary and theft. more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hum Posted July 7, 2010 Author Share Posted July 7, 2010 'Barefoot bandit' faces indictment (CNN) -- A federal judge in Washington state on Tuesday unsealed an indictment for airplane theft against an alleged teenage criminal known as "the barefoot bandit." According to the indictment, Colton Harris-Moore, 19, stole an aircraft last year in Idaho and flew it to Washington state, where authorities found it crashed. DNA evidence and fingerprints linked Harris-Moore to the plane theft, the indictment states. The elusive fugitive is suspected in previous thefts of small planes. Now, the FBI is offering a $10,000 reward for information leading to his arrest. An FBI statement indicated that agents believe Harris-Moore was involved in the Indiana theft, with the statement saying, "Should you see Harris-Moore in The Bahamas, please contact the nearest Royal Bahamas Police Force Station." http://www.cnn.com/2...deo=true&hpt=T2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Investigators pursuing Colton Harris-Moore were following a trail of break-ins from the southern tip of Great Abaco Island, where the 19-year-old convict ditched the plane Sunday, to the main town of Marsh Harbour 50 miles away where the teen was recognized on surveillance footage of a restaurant burglary. A Royal Bahamas Police Force bulletin warned that the teen should be considered armed and dangerous. http://www.foxnews.c...test=latestnews Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
