Michael T. Wurst, 22, of the 400 block of South Main Street, Mantua, is wanted by the Gloucester County Prosecutor's Office on a warrant.
Wurst failed to appear in state Superior Court in Woodbury on Dec. 20, 2012, for a pre-sentence interview on a charge of cocaine possession.
Wurst is 5 feet, 6 inches tall, weighs 135 pounds and has blue eyes and brown hair.
On Jan. 6, 2011 a Westville police officer received information that two males were en route from a Broadway apartment complex to purchase narcotics in Camden. A short time later, the officer stopped a Jeep Liberty matching the description he’d received turning into the apartment complex. The officer questioned defendant Wurst, a passenger in the vehicle. Wurst turned over three plastic bags of suspected cocaine, the officer reported. Wurst was arrested.
A Gloucester County grand jury indicted Wurst on June 22, 2011 on a charge of third degree possession of a controlled dangerous substance. He pleaded guilty on Nov. 28, 2011 to a charge of conspiracy to possess CDS.
Anyone who knows Wurst's whereabouts should not attempt to apprehend him. Instead, contact the Gloucester County Prosecutor’s Office at 856-384-5643 or Sgt. Barry Johnson of the prosecutor's office at 856-498-5485.
