Richmond Police detectives are looking for a man who
provided false identification during their investigation of a
drowning that occurred earlier this week in the James River. Harold Guy
Warner, 28, of New York state is also being sought by the Hornell, N.Y.
Police Department in connection with the explosion of a methamphetamine
laboratory in that town in February.
Last Tuesday, Warner was interviewed by RPD detectives
shortly after he was rescued during an incident in which his companion, Amy
Sue Briscoe, 36, of New York State, drowned in the James River. At that
time, Warner provided identification that indicated he was Jeffrey Allen
White. After being treated for severe hypothermia, he was discharged from a
local hospital.
A few hours later, as RPD detectives continued their
investigation, they were able to determine Warner’s real identity; and that he
and Briscoe were being sought on drug and endangerment charges in the state of
New York.
Warner is described as a white male, 5’ 8” tall, 150
pounds, with a tattoo of the New York City skyline showing the Twin Towers on
his left chest. He may be staying in a homeless encampment along the James
River.
Anyone with information as to the whereabouts of
Harold Guy Warner may contact Major Crimes Detective Gary Bailey
(804) 646-6743 or contact Crime Stoppers at 780-1000 or at www.7801000.com. Both Crime Stoppers methods
are anonymous. Or they may contact the Hornell, N.Y. Police Department at
(607) 324-2860.
