Harrisburg, PA – Pennsylvania State Police are warning the public today as investigators search for a man wanted in connection with threatening communications directed at law enforcement, prompting a statewide alert.
According to the Pennsylvania State Police Bureau of Criminal Investigation (BCI), Scott Richard Alford, 54, of Bristol, Bucks County, allegedly made threatening statements toward a PSP trooper who had previously arrested him in connection with a 2023 incident. Authorities say those communications are now being investigated as terroristic threats.
State police said Alford is currently under state parole supervision and was required to wear an ankle monitoring device. However, investigators report he has cut off the monitor, and his current whereabouts remain unknown as of today.
BCI officials said Alford is a former member of the Pagan’s Motorcycle Club and should be considered armed and dangerous. Police emphasized that the public should not attempt to approach him.
Alford is described as standing approximately 6 feet 4 inches tall and weighing about 267 pounds, with blue eyes. No vehicle description was immediately released.
Authorities are asking anyone with information on Alford’s location to contact PSP BCI at (267) 742-1580, call PSP Tips toll-free at 1-800-472-8477, or submit tips online through the PSP Tips system. According to state police, callers may be eligible for a cash reward if their information leads to an arrest, helps solve a crime, or assists in locating a wanted fugitive or missing person. Police noted that tip rewards are funded through asset forfeiture and not taxpayer dollars.
The investigation remains active, and officials said details may change as new information becomes available.
