Minden, NV…The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office is seeking the public’s help in locating 19 year-old Gerald Thomas Patrick Elliott III, aka: “JJ”.

Elliott is wanted on a multiple count felony warrant issued out of the East Fork Justice Court.

Elliott is believed to be hiding from law enforcement in order to avoid arrest and prosecution for pending criminal drug charges. It is unknown if Elliott, a resident of the Gardnerville Ranchos, is still in the Douglas County area or not.

The felony warrant of arrest was issued for Elliott in late June as a result of a several months-long investigation into his involvement in illicit drug sales in Douglas County by investigators from the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office Street Enforcement Team (DCSET). During the investigation, detectives conducted several controlled purchases of a variety of controlled substances from Elliott.

Douglas County Secret Witness program is offering a reward of $250.00 for information leading to the arrest of Elliott.

Gerald Thomas Patrick Elliott III, aka: “JJ”, is described as: male, Caucasian, 19 years-old, approx. 6-ft tall, 150 lbs, thin build, green eyes, and medium length brown hair.
