Partners Against Drug Trafficking seeks public help to locate 34-year-old Ryan James Hauser. Back on Nov. 29, his K-9 lieutenant in Yavapai County, along with his PANT detective, was a suspected drug trafficker who was driving a pickup north on State Route 69 near Dewey. I found a Hauser. Hauser responded to deputies’ attempts to stop him by accelerating slowly and refusing to stop for several miles. He reached speeds of 90 miles per hour during the chase. Hauser then made his U-turn on Route 69 and headed south. He took off to the right and crashed through the gates of the Bureau of Land Management before the deputies lost track of him. The truck was later found stranded at the bottom of a car wash six miles (6 miles) from the highway. Hauser fled the scene. Fentanyl, stimulants, and drug paraphernalia were found in the truck. Hauser now has an arrest warrant with a bond of $35,000 on multiple charges. Hauser is a Caucasian male, 5 feet 8 inches tall, weighs 165 pounds, has blond hair and hazel eyes. His last known address was on the 100th block of He on Virginia Street, South of Prescott, but is also associated with the St. Johns area. He can earn up to $500 in cash rewards for providing information leading to Hauser’s arrest. If you know his whereabouts or have any information, please contact him at Yavapai Silent Witness at 1-800-932-3232 or submit a tip at yavapaisw.com.
