Fugitive caught in Bedford, MO

Last week the Livingston County Sheriff's officers responded to a call in Bedford, Missouri in Livingston County in an attempt to locate a fugitive with an outstanding Missouri parole warrant. 29-year-old Linn O. Hoskins the third was found in Bedford, Missouri in the back end of a parked and stolen pickup and was quickly taken into custody.  The investigation led to one or more stolen firearms in a home and information on a total of three stolen vehicles, one of which was later wrecked and the location of other stolen property including a computer and cell phone. When the deputy went to obtain and secure the stolen firearm, Mr. Hoskins reportedly was able to exit the patrol vehicle while in restraints and flee on foot. Officers soon caught Hoskins and he was placed in additional restraints. Drug paraphernalia suspected of being used with Methamphetamine were also seized.
