Creston RCMP ask public to look out for wanted man

Creston RCMP is asking you to keep an eye out for a man wanted on a number of charges.

Police officials said Chad Meszarosi has been known to travel around the Kootenays, particularly Salmo, Nelway, Fruitvale, Trail, and Nelson.

“We have received information that he may be seeking out medical assistance,” said Creston RCMP Staff Sergeant Brandon Buliziuk. “If he is spotted, or his whereabouts are known, please contact the Creston RCMP or your local detachment immediately. Should you see Meszarosi, do not approach him as he is considered very dangerous to the public.”

The 38-year-old man is wanted for 32 changes, including breach of release order, aggravated assault, various weapons offences, escaping custody, forcible confinement, break and enter, and theft, among others.

Police describe Meszarosi as standing 5’9 and weighing about 180 lbs with a stocky build. He has brown hair and was unshaven when he was last seen.

“Meszarosi was last spotted in the Fruitvale and Nelway areas. Meszarosi is known to travel throughout the BC Interior, but has been most active in the Kootenays,” said Creston RCMP officials. “If you have information regarding Meszarosi’s whereabouts, please contact the Creston RCMP at 250-428-9313 or your local Detachment.”
