MANSFIELD, OH. (THECOUNT) — Shawn Christy, the man accused of threatening President Donald Trump and other elected officials, is believed to have crashed a truck stolen from Pennsylvania in Ohio, say local reports.
The truck crashed on Interstate 71 in Mansfield and the driver fled on foot, Ohio State patrol told WCMH-TV. It is believed the truck was driven by Christy.
Federal authorities suspect Christy, 27, stole the truck from the same northeastern Pennsylvania business he is believed to have burglarized earlier this month.
U.S. Marshalls, the FBI and the U.S. Secret Service have been searching for 27-year-old Shawn Christy of McAdoo for more than two months, saying he has threatened to use “full lethal force on any law enforcement officer that tries to detain me.” source
State police in Luzerne County said the truck was reported stolen at 12:30 a.m. Sunday from the Skitco Iron Works in Hazle Township, from which Christy is believed to have stolen food, money and a shotgun.
