Perry County, KY – Kentucky State Police are asking for the public’s help today as part of their weekly Wanted Wednesday effort to locate a man sought on a registration-related charge in eastern Kentucky.
According to Kentucky State Police, troopers from Post 13 in Hazard are searching for Daryl York, 58, who is wanted for failure to comply with sex offender registration requirements. Authorities say the charge stems from an alleged violation of Kentucky’s mandatory reporting laws.
Police describe York as standing 5 feet 7 inches tall, with brown hair and brown eyes. A booking-style photograph released by KSP shows him with closely cropped hair and facial hair. Officials did not disclose when the alleged violation occurred or how long he has been sought.
The alert was issued as part of KSP’s Wanted Wednesday initiative, which highlights individuals wanted on active warrants and encourages community members to assist law enforcement by sharing information. These alerts are commonly posted midweek to increase visibility across local communities.
State police emphasized that anyone who may have information about York’s current location should contact Kentucky State Police Post 13 in Hazard directly at 606-435-6069. Officials advise the public not to approach or attempt to detain wanted individuals on their own.
No additional details were released regarding York’s last known whereabouts or whether investigators believe he may still be in Perry County or surrounding areas of eastern Kentucky.
Anyone with tips can also contact law enforcement anonymously through standard reporting channels.
