On The Run: Rita LaFountaine

Posted:
Bismarck, ND -

Burleigh County authorities are asking for you help in finding one of their most wanted criminals...

There are four warrants for Rita LaFountaine's arrest -- because she's broken the rules of her probation.

LaFountaine pleaded guilty to accomplice to robbery, burglary and theft in April 2011 -- she was given a deferred sentence and put on supervised probation.

But since then LaFountaine has been charged with two counts of theft of property and possession of a controlled substance.

In addition, authorities say LaFountaine has committed numerous other crimes in the last year...

Sgt. Mike MacDonald with the Burleigh County Sheriffs Department says, "basically because of her history is what we are concerned about, she has an extensive criminal history plus the seriousness of these charges are such that it shows she's thumbing her nose at her probation officer. We believe she's in the Bismarck Mandan area, we still receive tips that she's around."

Burleigh County authorities continue to get tips on Brady Hirschkorn -- who we profiled in April's On The Run segment.

If you have any information on where LaFountaine or Hirshkorn may be -- contact the Burleigh County Sheriffs Department at 222-6651 or your local law enforcement agency.
