Jason Glenn Richards |
A Marshall County teen has been missing since Feb. 8, and
Albertville police hope the offer of a reward will help to bring in information
about his whereabouts.
15 year old Jason Glenn Richards, was last seen at Zaxby's in Guntersville.
Assistant Police Chief Jamie Smith said authorities believed
Richards to be a runaway at the time he was reported missing, and they have
learned nothing to change that opinion. He said there is increased concern
because of the length of time Richards has been gone without contacting family.
He said the department has not received a lot of information
about possible locations for Richards, and they hope that the potential for a
reward might bring someone forward who knows where the boy might be.
Albertville detectives contacted Marshall County District
Attorney Steven T. Marshall, who in turn asked the governor's office for
assistance. The governor's office has granted a $5,000 reward for information
leading to the arrest and conviction of the perpetrators.
Richards is described as a white/male, 5 feet 10 inches tall
and weighs about 150 pounds. He has blue eyes and dark brown hair.
Richards is featured on the National Center for Missing and
Exploited Children website, and on the Facebook page We Help the Missing.
Anyone with information regarding Richards is asked to
contact Albertville Police at 256-878-1212 or the Albertville Police Detective
Division at 256-891-8274.
