A21-3178 Burglary Investigation - Suspect Sketch (Photo) -02/15/22

The Cowlitz County Sheriff’s Office is seeking assistance from the public in identifying a male suspect from a residential burglary. 

At approximately 1900 hours of December 31, 2021, a female resident in the 100 block of Slide Creek Rd, Longview reported a male subject broke into her home.  The resident armed herself and confronted the suspect inside her home. The suspect fled from the scene as deputies were responding.  A search of the area using both K-9 and UAS (Unmanned Arial System/drone) was unsuccessful.

Washington State Patrol Trooper LeCount, a sketch artist, worked with the victim to create a sketch of the burglary suspect.  The suspect is described as a white male, 30-40 years of age, with blonde hair, scarred pockmarks on the face, and a tattoo near his eye.

The Sheriff’s Office is asking anyone who recognizes this subject to contact Detective Neill at 360-577-3092. Information can also be sent by email to neillc@co.cowlitz.wa.us.
