(SULLIVAN CO.) - Investigators are attempting to locate a wanted person who should be considered armed and dangerous.
Police are looking for 48-year-old Bradley Joe Collins of Dugger, who is wanted on warrant for theft out of Sullivan County and a warrant for criminal recklessness with a deadly weapon, resisting arrest with a deadly weapon and dealing and possession of meth and marijuana out of Vigo County.
Police say a homeowner came home last week to find an unknown male in his home in the Cass area, just northwest of Dugger. The male, who police say was Collins, fled the residence, and the homeowner reported the incident to police.
A short time later there was a report of a stolen pickup, which was later crashed on State Road 159 south of Dugger. The driver, who police say was Collins, fled the scene on foot.
Property from a separate burglary was found inside the abandoned pickup truck.
Since that time investigators with the Indiana Department of Natural Resources, along with Sullivan County Sheriff investigators and the Dugger Town Marshal's Office have established probable cause that Collins is the person who committed the crimes.
Collins is described as a white male 6'02" and weighing 295 pounds.
Police believe Collins could still be in the eastern Sullivan or western Greene County area.
If you see Collins do not approach him, but call 911 immediately.
