EMPHASIS: Patrol Needs Assistance In Locating Fugitive

The Missouri State Highway Patrol is investigating the deviant sexual assault of a child in Butler County. As a result of the investigation, a warrant has been issued for 1st Degree Statutory Sodomy for Johnnie Dunivan on July 12, 2007. Dunivan was last seen on July 11, 2007, driving his red 2000 Toyota Tacoma truck (MO license plate 241-NN4) with a camper shell. Dunivan may be armed. The Patrol is asking for help from the public. If anyone has seen Dunivan or his truck, do not approach or attempt to contact him. Please contact Troop E Headquarters at 573-840-9500.

The above named charge is mere accusation and is not evidence of guilt. Evidence in support of the charge must be presented before a court of competent jurisdiction whose duty is to determine guilt or innocence.
