Our local Police Chief, Shad Haller arrested a man who has been on the lam for over 31 years! I saw Shad as he escorted Joseph Welch to Homer with Smokey Bay Air on Wednesday. As this article in the Anchorage Daily News states, it sounds like this was a real shock to Mr. Welch, who accepted his arrest without incident. The article got it wrong on one point, Chief Haller waited for him finish his dinner at the Tidepool Cafe before making the arrest! A considerate Police Chief for sure! Moral of the story: You can’t hide in Seldovia!
