Troopers Arrest Idaho Fugitive in Willow

On Sunday, Talkeetna Wildlife Troopers arrested a man wanted in Idaho after conducting a traffic stop in Willow.

The driver, Dustin Simpson, is wanted for probation violation.

According to Trooper spokeswoman Megan Peters, Simpson’s probation was due to a charge of leaving the scene of an injury accident.

His probation violation earned him the label of “Fugitive from Justice.”

Simpson was taken to the Mat-Su Pretrial Facility, where he is being held on $500 bail.
