Jan. 31
Syracuse (WSYR-TV) - The Fugitive Task Force is looking for the public's help finding a repeat drunk driver who skipped out on his last court appearance. The police have looked for Ralph Wallace at a number of addresses without being able to locate him.
Wallace has two DWI convictions and has served time in a State Prison. He is once again wanted for drunk driving.
"It's a danger to society, to have someone out there, who doesn't have a license, with these type of DWI's under their vest, it's an accident waiting to happen. We need to get him off the street," said Fugitive Task Force Supervisor Joe Ciciarelli.
His last known street address was East Hickock Avenue. He is known to frequent Oswego County and northern Onondaga County. Wallace is 5-foot-10, 172 pounds with brown hair and brown eyes.
Anyone with information on Wallace should call the Fugitive Task Force at 473-7625.
