Two Arrested After Cantonment Manhunt
January 3, 2013
A man that was the subject of a New Year’s Eve manhunt in Cantonment remains in the Escambia County Jail, and a woman was charged with obstructing deputies in finding him.
Several Escambia County Sheriff’s Deputies responded to 310 Booth Avenue in an attempt to arrest 40-year old Michael Anthony Hare on outstanding warrants. Deputies were unable to immediately enter the fenced yard at the residence due to two large dogs. Deputies reported seeing Hare and and a female, later identified as 27-year old Regan Nichole Daniel, run out the back door of residence.
A seven-year old child that lived in the home approached deputies and told them that Hare had been in the home all day, an arrest report states.
Daniel later exited the house, denied that Hare had been there and refused to allow deputies to enter the home or yard. She later took control of the dogs, and deputies unsuccessfully searched the residence for Hare.
Deputies established a perimeter around the area and began a K-9 search that lasted for a couple of a hours. Hare was eventually located hiding in an attached garage at the Booth Avenue residence and taken into custody.
Hare was booked into the Escambia County jail without bond on two outstanding probation violation warrants, resisting an officer/obstruction of justice and contempt of court on an domestic violence injunction that forbid him from contact with Daniel. Hare was on probation on stalking charges, according to an arrest report.
Daniel was charged with obstructing justice/resisting an officer and later released from jail on a $500 bond.

I don’t know this man but just because he has a bad wrap sheet doesn’t mean you need to judge this man
REGARDING:
“@David,
Contempt of court is contempt period. Doesn’t matter whose property (which she doesn’t own a house),”
If that wasn’t her house, they should charge her with trespassing, don’t you think?
AND
“she willingly let him be there, that is her also breaking the court order. If he wasn’t there by her letting him, why would she try to hide him?”
You’re probably right but it is possible to imagine someone threatening to harm someone else for ratting on him. It’s even possible she thought she’d be charged with contempt of court if she admitted he was hiding in whosever house it was.
AND
“ If he is such a bad guy that she needs a restraining order, why would she allow him around her kids? Think about it. Truth is, these two are poison for each other, and those innocent kids are caught in the middle, it’s a shame”
It sounds like you are one hundred percent correct.
Me not know.
I just try to give ladies the benefit of the doubt.
David for better associates
@David,
Contempt of court is contempt period. Doesn’t matter whose property (which she doesn’t own a house), she willingly let him be there, that is her also breaking the court order. If he wasn’t there by her letting him, why would she try to hide him? Why would she be charged with resisting an officer for lying that he wasn’t there? So she didn’t follow the court order either, and she should receive the same punishment. If he is such a bad guy that she needs a restraining order, why would she allow him around her kids? Think about it. Truth is, these two are poison for each other, and those innocent kids are caught in the middle, it’s a shame.
i know what his rap sheet is dont need yall to post them. all i am saying to put him in the news like he is wanted for a murder or something. i mean geezs it is contempt of court after she let him back in HIS house not HERS. i mean come those officers need to be on the west side trying to catch all the folks who are shooting people. i dont really care what yall have to say.
REGARDING Janet Thomas —- SERIOUSLY — SUCH A GREAT GUY RUNNING FROM THE POLICE LIKE A COMMON CRIMINAL!!! OH WAIT HE IS A COMMON CRIMINAL>>>>>Battery,
contempt of court,
stalking,
domestic violence,
harassment,
stalking,
burglary,
narcotics equipment,
CONSIDERING:
“So why is it he was the only one charged with contempt?”
Perhaps because she was in her home?
David just considering
They both had a court order to stay away from each other. So why is it he was the only one charged with contempt?
REGARDING:
“I know this guy pretty darn well and y’all are making it sound like he is a horrible person and he is not!!”
It would be interesting to know what you considered a bad person and it is possible all those assorted officers over the years were just picking on him when he was charged with:
Battery,
contempt of court,
stalking,
domestic violence,
harassment,
stalking,
burglary,
narcotics equipment,
et cetera,
but most were simply commenting on him involving others in his “not horrible” activities.
But, since you know him so well, we will yield to your superior knowledge of his sterling character.
David for good people
I’ll never understand the people that let people with court ordered restraining orders or whatever … back into their lives. It should be a criminal offense if it’s allowed to be broken as well as broken by the offennder. Now because you let them back in your life you are now a criminal also. “Stupid is as stupid does.”
Stop defending this idiot. He’s a CRIMINAL. If he wanted he could’ve chose not to be.
Janet, he has a rap sheet that includes arrests for battery, narcotic possession, stalking, burglary, suspended drivers license, possession of drug manufacturing equipment, harrassment, domestic violence………and you say he is not a horrible person?? Really? Sounds like your standards are pretty low and WE are lucky that he is off the streets. What a great influence he must be on that child.
1. At least one person in this household has some common sense..
really, i know this guy pretty darn well and yall are making it soud like he is a horrible person and he is not!!
The 7 y.o. kid was the smartest one living there.
I know…I’ll hide in the garage…they never look there…
What a shame. And to have small children around such people and activities.
