September 16, 2021
A Flomaton man was arrested Wednesday night after a multi-hour manhunt involving several agencies.
Just after 6 p.m., officers from the Flomaton Police Department, Escambia County (AL) Sheriff’s Office, Escambia County (FL) Sheriff’s Office, Alabama Department of Corrections, and the Alabama Drug Enforcement Task Force attempted to locate Hunter Luke Leino on outstanding Flomaton warrants.
Leino was later located and booked into the Escambia County (AL) Detention Center on charges that included theft of property in the first degree, burglary in the third degree, three counts of theft of property in the fourth degree, possession of a controlled substance (methamphetamine), unlawful possession of drug paraphernalia, and fleeing and attempting to elude.
Flomaton Police said Leino had fled from officers previously in the past few weeks. Police said the arrest will close multiple cases.

Once a dirtbag…
I happen to know this young man very well. He dosen’t even have a vehicle, it would b nice to know all parties involved in these cases. No way this 1young man acted alone. . Can the cameras be brought out and vehicle/vehicles be shown so everyone involved can be charged as well????
Are there pictures of the vehicle(s) that may have been used to commit the crime(s)? Might be some other burglaries that could be linked together if you have more info available that could be shared.
