U.S. Marshals Capture Three Violent Fugitves In Escambia County

August 16, 2012

The U.S. Marshals Florida Regional Fugitive Task Force hit the streets of Escambia County Wednesday and arrested three men wanted on numerous charges that include aggravated assault with a weapon, armed robbery, using a firearm and including a non-registered sex offender.

The Task Force began their day when they had to breach the door of the home of Rodney Deangelo Ries, aka “Tattoo” after knocking and observing someone inside the home that would not come to the door.

Ries, was arrested around 8:15 a.m. after he surrendered after hiding in the home on the 8500 Block of Stockdale Avenue. The 23-year old Ries is wanted for aggravated assault with a gun and firing a weapon in public.

Task force members from the U.S. Marshals, Escambia and Okaloosa County sheriff’s offices and FDLE then apprehended David Lee Jones at the Travelodge Inn on Highway 29.

The task force captured him around 1:00 p.m. after he pulled into the parking lot of the hotel where they were doing surveillance.

Jones, 18, was arrested after he and another man he was with tried to elude the task force inside the hotel. Jones is wanted on an Escambia County warrant that charges him with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, use or display of a firearm during a felony, armed burglary, robbery with a firearm or deadly weapon and petit theft. The other man was detained shortly then released.

The Florida Regional Fugitive Task Force then made their last arrest for the day when they nabbed Caleb Joseph Alderman after he left a job site on Nine Mile Road. They caught up with the fugitive around the 200 block of New Warrington Road at about 3 p.m.

Alderman, 19, was arrested without incident. Alderman’s charges include failure to register as a sex offender, probation violation for a weapon charge and failure to appear on a larceny arrest.

All three were booked into Escambia County Jail. Ries was released on a $11,000 bond, and Jones remained jailed on a $95,250 bond. Alderman’s bond was set at  $5,000 for failure to register but he is being held on no bond on his additional other charges.

    Ch. 15 also gives good local coverage. If you want news from the west coast or the northeast or the weather 4 time during a 30 minute block stay with Ch. 3.

    Haven’t you heard? WEAR-TV is a Santa Rosa, Okaloosa, Walton county station. If you want any Escmbia county news tune in to Channel 10 in Mobile. I get so sick of always listening to news of especially Okaloosa and Walton counties. It must have something to do with that cute little reporter down there.

    How sad is it that Channel 3 never reports any of the stories that we read about on this site.
    I even dropped the News Journel as it was only good as fish wrapping!!

    keep up the good work
