A man serving a two-year sentence for multiple crimes escaped from a shelter in Perris this weekend, authorities said.
Robert Staricka, 48, left minimum security accommodations in Riverside County around midnight, according to the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. Officials realized he was gone after receiving a tamper alert from his tracking device later that morning.
He had been in the institution since June 5. His sentence followed vandalism convictions; buying or receiving a stolen motor vehicle, special construction equipment or trailer; and making or passing a counterfeit bill or check as one who has had a previous conviction.
Staricka is known to regularly visit Riverside, Lake Elsinore and Murrieta, according to a wanted poster of the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department.
He has blond hair and brown eyes and is about six feet tall. He weighs approximately 225 pounds and has several tattoos, including the word “STARICKA” on his upper back and a rose with the word “MOM” below it on the left side of his neck.
Authorities are asking anyone who sees him or has information about his location to call 911 or the corrections department at (916) 445-4950.
