ARREST WARRANT ISSUED FOR SHOOTING SUSPECT<br />
CR#11GS08526 -- News Release #2<br />
EPHRATA (07JULY2011) - Grant County Sheriff Tom Jones today announced an arrest<br />
warrant has been issued <strong>for</strong> Anthony Jack Aswell of <strong>Moses</strong> <strong>Lake</strong>. Aswell is charged with<br />
first degree assault in connection with the July 6 shooting of 24-year-old Christopher<br />
McCarrell during an early morning confrontation at 9998 Maple Dr. NE, <strong>Moses</strong> <strong>Lake</strong>.<br />
Aswell is described as a 23-year-old white male, standing 5’ 10” tall, weighing 165 lbs. ,<br />
with blonde hair and blue eyes. He has a skull and flames tattoo on his right arm. He<br />
also is known by the alias “Pancho”. Aswell has a long criminal history, and is<br />
considered armed and dangerous. Citizens should not attempt to detain him.<br />
On Wednesday afternoon, over 25 sheriff’s deputies, detectives, members of the<br />
Interagency Narcotics En<strong>for</strong>cement Team (INET) and the <strong>Moses</strong> <strong>Lake</strong> Regional Tactical<br />
Response Team (TRT) searched several homes and properties in and around <strong>Moses</strong><br />
<strong>Lake</strong>. Tips received from many sources helped officers track Aswell to these locations.<br />
In spite of the officers’ hard work, Aswell has thus far avoided capture.<br />
McCarrell is recovering at Samaritan Hospital in <strong>Moses</strong> <strong>Lake</strong>. His injuries are not<br />
considered life-threatening.<br />
“Tips from the public are what have helped us follow Aswell, and with more tips from<br />
the public, we will catch him,” said Sheriff Jones.<br />
Anyone with in<strong>for</strong>mation about Aswell should call Detective John Wallace at the Grant<br />
County Sheriff’s Office, 509-754-2011 ext. 468, or send an anonymous tip to<br />
crimetips@co.grant.wa.us. Tipsters do not have to reveal their identity.<br />
