Local and county authorities are searching for a man from the Hillsborough and Manville areas for failing to appear in court for a pair of drug-related warrants.
According to the Somerset County Prosecutor’s Office, Evan Stockwell is currently being sought after by law enforcement officials. He was recently featured by the prosecutor’s office as the “fugitive of the week.”
The two arrest warrants stem from his failure to appear at the Somerset County Superior Court, in Somerville, for the original charges of third-degree possession of a controlled dangerous substance and third degree attempt to possess a controlled dangerous substance.
Stockwell was described by officials as a white man, standing 5’6″ tall, weighing approximately 120 pounds with brown hair and brown eyes. His last known address was 7 Downbury Court in Hillsborough, but he has also spent time in Manville Borough from time to time.
Detectives at the Somerset County Prosecutor’s Office request that anyone with information regarding Stockwell or his whereabouts call 908-526-2500 and ask for the office’s on-call fugitive supervisor.
