ELKO- A manhunt for a guy who eluded police and burglarized homes in the Ryndon/Elburz area on Tuesday continued on Wednesday.

The individual was last spotted driving a stolen ATV south from River Ranch. He had a beard and was dressed in a white shirt and camouflage.

“The suspect is considered armed and very dangerous,” according to the Elko County Sheriff’s Office. “If you see this suspect please call 911 immediately.

Earlier on Tuesday, Nevada State Police troopers began pursuing a white van with unmatched Utah plates, both of which were discovered to be stolen.

“The suspect abandoned the van near River Ranch and stole a gray ATV (4 wheeler) in that area and burglarized a couple of residences in that area,”  the sheriff’s office claimed.

The suspect fled the scene on an ATV, heading west. He is suspected to have fired a weapon at a parked, abandoned vehicle near the 317 mile marker on Interstate 80 before fleeing south.
