BLAINE, Wash. — The Blaine Police Department (BPD) issued an alert Tuesday, August 30th, that asks the public for assistance in locating Christopher Powell, age 47.

Today’s alert says BPD has established probable cause to arrest Powel and charge him with suspicion of 2nd degree burglary, 1st degree malicious mischief, 2nd degree vehicle prowling, 3rd degree theft and criminal trespass. The charges are the result of investigations into 3 separate incidents.

Christopher is described by BPD as 6-foot-tall weighing 215 pounds with brown hair and hazel eyes. He “usually wears all black clothing, pants or shorts as well as black athletic shoes with white soles. He is believed to be transient and is known to frequent the Cost Cutter area and the Blaine Food Bank.”

BPD asks that anyone with information about Powell’s location or that sees him to not approach but to instead call 911 immediately.
