Santa Rosa Fugitive Nabbed In Century After TV Program

May 19, 2011

A wanted fugitive featured on a Wednesday night television program was nabbed at his mother’s house in Century.

Brian Arnette Moore, 36, was taken into custody without incident by Escambia County Sheriff’s Office deputies at a home on Sellers Road. He was wanted for grand theft auto for stealing a 1998 Hyundai Sonata  from his roommate on Rice Road in Milton back on April 27. Miller was being held Wednesday night in the Escambia County Jail awaiting transfer to Santa Rosa County.

Santa Rosa County Sheriff’s deputies appeared on WEAR 3’s “Fugitive Task Force” segment during the evening news Wednesday to feature Moore. A tip then led Escambia deputies to look for Moore in Century.

The victim told Santa Rosa investigators that Moore, who was her roommate, took her car without permission. He first told the victim that the car was at the Escambia County Jail, but it was not. He then told her it was at the Century jail, but it was not there either — Century does not even have a jail. The vehicle has since been recovered.

Sellers Road runs north off West Highway 4 adjacent to the Century Care Center.

    You can always find them at their Momma’s house. Fugitives, I mean.
