Manhunt underway in Murray for suspect in string of armed robberies
Thomas Riessen was still on the run Sunday evening after police say he fled from them in a pickup truck and then on foot.
Deputy Chief Todd Grey with Taylorsville Police said officers spotted a red Ford F-150 that matched the description of the vehicle involved in the robberies. The suspect, believed to be Riessen, had robbed multiple businesses in the area by giving a note to an employee and brandishing a gun. Grey said the truck had no license plate, but it had"distinguishing characteristics that made it stand out." Officers found it at a strip mall on Redwood Road in Taylorsville, where Riessen had allegedly robbed a business just the day before.
When officers attempted to pull the vehicle over, they say Riessen drove away. The pursuit went into Murray, then onto I-15. Police say Riessen abandoned the truck before taking off on foot — jumping a fence and running off into a neighborhood west of the freeway in the area of 5500 South. Two other people were detained in the vehicle.
He is described as a white man, 5'10", 150 pounds, with brown hair. He was last seen wearing a white long-sleeve t-shirt with a blue shirt over it, and khaki pants.Police ask for anyone who sees Riessen or knows anything about his whereabouts to call 911 immediately.
