Manhunt ends as cops capture SA fugitive interstate
A week-long search for a man wanted in SA for serious offending has ended about 800 kilometres away.
Wanted man Christopher Marsh was arrested in East Melbourne – about 800 kilometres from SA’s border – on Thursday, a week after SA Police issued a public appeal to find him.
Marsh, aged 47, was arrested with another wanted South Australian man, who SA Police said was an associate of the Comanchero motorcycle club.
The Hallett Cove man, aged 32, was wanted in SA on outstanding warrants and for breaching bail.
