Marion County Sheriff Billy Woods is asking for the public’s help in finding a man who is wanted for this third petit theft offense.
Woods, in his regular “Wanted by Woods Wednesday” segment on Facebook, asked for assistance in finding 34-year-old Duwayne Hughes, who was caught on camera stealing boat batteries and a catalytic converter, Wood said.
“We have caught your partner in crime and she has been arrested,” Woods said. “Now it is your turn, Duwayne.
“You obviously have a serious problem with taking things that don’t belong to you, as you’ve been arrested for this before.”
Woods said it appears that Hughes can’t learn a lesson from his past arrests.
“All my citizens now know you are a thief and let me tell you, no one likes a thief,” Woods said. “Make it easy and turn yourself in. Because if you don’t, someone else will.”
Anyone with information about Hughes or his whereabouts is asked to contact Crime Stoppers of Marion County at (352) 368-STOP and reference 21-34 in your tip. If you use Crime Stoppers and your tip leads to an arrest, you could be eligible for a cash reward.
