City of Frankfort recently issued the following announcement.
Wanted Person Arrested after Attempting to Evade Arrest
On March 24, 2022, Officer Kaleb Thompson observed 23-year-old, Craig Hale
of Crawfordsville, operating a vehicle in the area of Jackson and Morrison Street. Officer
Thompson was aware of arrest warrants for Hale. Hale had two Failure to Appear warrants for
separate cases in 2020.
FPD officers waited until Hale had parked his vehicle to confront him. Once Hale made contact
with police he ran from officers. Unbeknownst to Hale, Officer Jake Myers had arrived so Hale
decided to enter a vehicle that was not his. Officers quickly pulled him from the vehicle and
made the arrest.
