Two arrested after air, land hunt
(Continued from page 1.)
gan Sunday when Do Makovi-
hey returned home from vacation
and checked a shed he owns on
ltighway 101 across from Sander-
son Field. Inside the shed he
found property under a tarp that
included an item with the name
of a neighbor on it, according to
Detective Nick Patterson of the
sheriffs office.
Patterson said Makoviney
waited at the shed until two men
showed up in a Subaru. He said
the two men fled when they were
confronted. Deputies later con-
firmed that the Subaru had been
stolen.
Makoviney gave the investigat-
ing officers a description of the
men. The next morning deputies
T.R. Rankin and Luther Pittman
spotted two men who fit the de-
scriptions of the wanted men just
(rest of the ballfields on Johns
Prairie Road. The chase began
about 9:30 a.m. when the two
men ran away from the deputies
and into the woods, according to a
written report prepared by Ran-
kin.
Sergeant Anderson of the state
patrol flew over Johns Prairie
Road in a trooper plane as depu-
ties searched the bushes for Pear-
son and Speas.
RANKIN SAID the deputies
also got an assist from 47-year-
old Charles Lacy, a citizen who
told them to check behind 90 East
Rhododendron Road. There they
fbund the two men hiding in a
tree, Rankin reported. Speas
made a run tbr it, the deputy
said.
"tie jumped from a limb about
25 feet above ground and ran into
the brush. Deputy Pittman began
to chase him," Rankin wrote.
Speas eluded Pittman but Ran-
kin and a trooper found a Ruger
Magnum revolver wrapped in a
blue sweatshirt at the base of the
tree, according to Rankin. The
Another condemnation:
County goes after
right-of-way land
For the second time in as
many meetings, Mason County
commissioners on Tuesday de-
cided to initiate condemnation
proceedings against a resident to
acquire property.
This time the project is on
Crestview Road and the property
owner is Virginia Goldberg, who
owns the .02-acre parcel the
county has attempted to purchase.
"Mrs. Goldberg has rejected
any attempt to negotiate for the
purchase of the additional right-
of-way. In order to complete this
project, it is imperative that we
acquire this right-of-way," re-
ported Rich Geiger, engineering
services manager, who was flU-
ing in for County Engineer Jerry
Hauth.
When asked by Commission
Chairperson Cindy Olsen if
Goldberg had specific concerns
about the road projects, Geiger
said he did not know. She is
willing to speak to anyone about
any subject except Crestview
Drive which she simply refuses
to discuss, he added.
"I hate to go about it this way,"
Commissioner Mary Jo Cady
said, noting that condemnation
is "an unfortunate thing."
The county will pay fair mar-
ket value fi)r the property.
On September 14 the board ini-
tiated condemnation proceed-
ings on a portion of property
along the South Fork of' the Sko-
komish River in the Bambi
Farms Road area owned by Guy
and Martha Parsons so the coun-
ty can access a bank stabiliza-
tion project ....
Members sought

Shelton city commissioners are
looking tbr local citizens interest-
ed in serving on the Shelton Plan-
ning Advisory Board.
There is an opening for a rep-
resentative of businesses located
in the Mountain View area. Ap-
plicants will be asked to serve un-
til at least December 31, 2002,
when the position is up for re-ap-
pointment.
The board is a citizens' advi-
sory group appointed by the city
commission last spring to look at
planning-related issues. The
board was asked to become famil-
iar with the intricacies of Shel-
ton's comprehensive plan and the
development regulations that
guide its policies.
This summer, the board has
been working on a mobile home
park ordinance to be presented
later to the city commission. Next
month, the board will start exam-
ining the subject of developmen-
tal impact fees.
Those who want to serve on the
board can apply by sending a let-

Rankin wrote that they spotted
Pearson hiding in a tree and
placed him under arrest. He said
he checked the gun and found
that it had been reported stolen
on September 4 from a home near
the three-mile point on Johns
Prairie Road.
SPEAS WAS arrested around
5 p.m. Monday by Deputy Jason
Dracobly after dispatchers re-
ceived a report that he'd been
spotted about 2.6 miles out Brock-
dale Road.
"The suspect also had numer-
ous cuts and bruises from run-
ning through the thick brush all
day in his attempt to hide from
the police," Dracobly wrote in his
report.
Dracobly said Speas had been
spotted earlier in the day in a
blue shirt but that he didn't have
a shirt on at the time of his ar-
rest. Dracobly said Speas said
that he'd htlrt his ankle jumping
from the tree. "None of you could
have done that," Speas said, ac-
cording to the deputy's statement
of probable cause.
"This defendant was particu-

Deputy Prosecutor Schuetz said
when Speas appeared in superior
court.
Sawyer appointed Charles
