Yazoo County law enforcement is asking the public to help locate Anthony Russell, wanted on charges of felony fleeing and disorderly conduct, the Yazoo County Sheriff’s Office said in a social media post Wednesday.
The office said anyone caught riding with Russell or harboring him could face arrest alongside him and urged Russell to turn himself in. The post provided a tip line at 662-746-0014 for anyone with information.
The sheriff’s office described Russell as about 5-foot-9 and 185 pounds and said he has recently cut his hair to a lower, clean style, according to the post. The office did not provide additional details about the alleged incidents in the post.
The Yazoo County Sheriff’s Office is the primary law enforcement agency for Yazoo County, Mississippi, responsible for investigating crimes, serving warrants and making arrests. Police warnings that companions or hosts can be charged reflect general law enforcement practice that aiding or concealing a suspect can carry legal consequences.
Authorities asked anyone who sees Russell or has information to call 662-746-0014. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
