PASQUOTANK COUNTY, N.C. — The Pasquotank County Sheriff's Office said a wanted man who ran into the woods Wednesday has been caught.
Matthew Herba is facing one count each of felony financial card fraud, a misdemeanor count of unauthorized use of a motor vehicle, failure to appear on a misdemeanor count of assault on a female and communicating threats, and failure to appear on a misdemeanor count of cyberstalking.
Deputies took to Facebook on Wednesday saying they were looking for Herba. He had last been seen in the area of 1141 North Road Street in Elizabeth City, which is near the Sentara Albemarle Medical Center.
The sheriff's office said that "when deputies attempted to serve warrants he fled on foot." Herba also made threats that law enforcement would "have to kill him before he goes back to jail."
On the same Facebook post, a person sharing Herba's name and picture replied, "What am I wanted for?" a question that many others echoed in the comments section since the original post didn't list his charges.
"I'm long gone it don't matter," Herba responded.
