NEWBURYPORT, Mass. (WHDH) — A Newburyport man whose search prompted a shelter-in-place order Wednesday was in court Thursday.
Police said Joe Ilarraza, 19, took off when officers tried to serve him a warrant. The search for Ilarraza caused a shelter-in-place at the Port Plaza shopping center. He was found about an hour later near Toppans Lane.
Ilarazza was charged with breaking and entering, trespassing, resisting arrest and disorderly conduct.
