Escaped youth facility inmate captured in Provo, Utah
Joshua Garvin, 22
Escaped from Tillamook Youth Corrections. Captured in Provo, UT
On September 12th, The Oregon Youth Authority (OYA) and the Oregon State Police requested the public’s assistance in locating a subject who escaped the Tillamook Youth Correction Facility.
On Wednesday Joshua GARVIN was located and arrested in Provo, Utah. According to Provo Utah Police, they received a tip that GARVIN was at a shelter in their city. When officers arrived at the shelter, GARVIN fled on foot, and after a brief chase was arrested without incident. GARVIN will be held in Utah pending extradition back to Oregon, and no doubt to a longer period of higher security incarceration than before he decided to run.
