The Westmoreland County Sheriff’s Office announced the arrest of a man who was wanted in Westmoreland and Allegheny counties on multiple charges.
Cory Sober was found in a house in Turtle Creek Tuesday, according to Sheriff James Albert.
Sober, who is facing charges including burglary and robbery, allegedly assaulted a man with brass knuckles and kicked him down stairs, according to the sheriff, and neglected two dogs in his care.
On Jan. 3, Lower Burrell police initiated a traffic stop on him, but he jumped from the vehicle and got away.
Albert said deputies tracked Sober to the house in Turtle Creek. He initially tried to flee, then retreated. He was eventually found hiding behind a furnace.
Sober was arrested and placed in the Westmoreland County Jail, according to Albert.
