Fugitive Leads Police to His Location

(La Porte County, IN) - An alleged rapist being sought locally drew law enforcement right to his whereabouts.

 

Kyle Terusiak, 28, is still being held today in the La Porte County Jail on a $25,000 bond.

 

Per authorities, at roughly 5 p.m. on Tuesday, officers responded to a harassment complaint from Terusiak at a residence in the 2700 block of 450 South. Before arriving, they confirmed that Terusiak had a warrant out for his arrest on the rape allegations, and quickly took him into custody after approaching the residence.
