Martin Diaz, 30, was arrested Wednesday afternoon behind the Big 5 in Moses Lake, according to a Facebook post from the Moses Lake Police Department.
Quincy police had developed information that Diaz was in Moses Lake, the post says. Moses Lake detectives and patrol officers found Diaz in the 900 block of North Stratford Road. Diaz was taken into custody after a short foot pursuit, the post said.
Officers with the Quincy police department were called to the 700 block of Rocky Ave NE Tuesday night.
