Wanted Felon Just Fled From EPD
Captain Steve Watson of the Eureka Police just tweeted, “This frequently wanted felon, Anthony Manuel Burgess (24), just ran from EPD (again) in the area of I/12th St. #EurekaMostWanted”
Operation Safe Streets warned earlier, “EPD currently searching for Anthony Burgess. According to scanner traffic, Burgess fled from officers on a stop yesterday. Searching area of 12th and I Streets and surrounding areas. Call 911 if you see him, do not approach.” (Check out a slideshow of different photos of Burgess on Operation Safe Streets.)

Hardly noticeable, not easy laying low with those brandings!
Let me see, Ahem…… I think he will be easy to spot indeed!! Keep yours Eyes Open People!!! Anyone with hoodie over their head call the police!!!
Kind of hard not to judge a book by its cover when it’s cover looks like that, throw away the key
What are his charges?
Here’s something from the Lost Coast Outpost that gives some: https://lostcoastoutpost.com/2015/jan/26/third-times-charm-man-arrested-again-while-fleeing/
Man that’s a whole slew of charges back then, i wonder how long he was in jail for? He definitely shouldn’t be out! like 3 or 4 felon in possion of a fire arm charges plus others, guess we just have to wait until he kills someone before he is taken away for good. Scary stuff you know he has a gun right now.
All of his charges were fleeing a police officer with a loaded weapon and LoCo doesn’t even site his original felonies just says he was reportedly brandishing a gun at somebody.
This poor guy needs help, not more time in jail. Real rehab for someone with real issues. He’s just a kid and our society is failing him.
Check the tats, that one is beyond help
I think he’s failed society!
“On September 11, Anthony Manuel Burgess was sentenced to seven years in state prison after pleading guilty to using a firearm during the commission of a robbery that occurred in Eureka on August 10, according to the Humboldt County District Attorney.
Officials said Burgess is a member of the Sureno gang and was known by the name “Creeper”.” https://krcrtv.com/archive/anthony-creeper-burgess-sentenced-to-7-years-in-prison Previously to that-

Cousin of Chris Burgess who was killed by EPD a few years back. Mother committed suicide a couple of years ago. Been in the system since birth. Not hard to wonder why his life is the way it is. Waste.
Very sad the young man has tragedy surrounded him…he has succumbed to making bad survival choices…
I notice looking at his eyes, the left is angry and the right is fearful. I wish we could figure how to help kids in tweeker families. CWS pays staff, but says that helping kids is too costly and leaves them to grow up hopeless. Why not just close down CWS? Why pay staff who don’t do anything to break this cycle?
Best mugshot yet.
Could be anything: Whatever happened to Chris’ mom Margorie? Was her assault on one of her sons with an iron ever adjudicated?
Have no idea. Haven’t seen her around in years.
Let’s get tough.[edit] He gets no more chances. The family will say ” He is a good kid he doesn’t deserve to be locked up”. Blah, Blah we heard it all before. This scum needs to go.
🖕
As quoted “this frequently wanted felon”. Why is wanted frequently? This shows the catch and release Pre Trial Release progran does not work. When there is no deterant this is what happens.
I agree with Walter. He used up his chances.
I had him in big brother program when he was 12. Took him fishing,hiking, watched lots of sports on tv. I tryed to help. Sad to see him on a bad run like this.
Thanks for trying, can’t help those who won’t help them selves, but you get an A for effort.
Thank You
He was one of our foster children when he was in junior high. He was a good kid~! He was into football and played on a team. When he left us, apparently the system failed him. Both my wife and I are really sad at how he turned out. Most all the kids that we fostered have turned out just fine. We fostered for over 15 years until I was disabled. I really feel for him and wish I could have done more to lead him in the right direction.
Thank you for your efforts. But he made the choices that put him in the situation he’s in. Not you.
I’m so glad that most of the children that you fostered turned out just great. But tell me this did there 16-year-old cousin get shot and killed by a piece of s*** cop who is now a sergeant and not only that has arrested my brother numerous times knowing that that’s his cousin and beat him with a f****** billy club but that’s okay right cuz cops you know they’re supposed to protect and serve right but yet they kill kids. Oh yeah and let’s not forget the fact that his mom committed suicide not even a month after he had gotten out of jail. Are great grandma’s dead are Grandma’s dead both our aunts are dead, my cousins are God knows where marjorie’s two other kids are still alive thank God !
Hi Anthony , miss you.
