Aroostook County Man Wanted For Trafficking in Methamphetamine

Police are asking for the public's help in locating a man wanted for trafficking in methamphetamine in southern Aroostook County. 

Last week, police and Maine Drug Enforcement agents executed a search warrant at a residence in Merrill, about 20 miles west of Houlton.  The MDEA lab team removed evidence of a meth lab from the building, but the man who rented the house had apparently fled.

The Aroostook County Sheriff's Office says 38-year-old Micah Lawlor of Merrill is wanted for trafficking in methamphetamine. He is described as 6 feet tall with brown eyes. Officials say Lawlor may now be clean shaven and thinner.

If you have any information about Lawlor's whereabouts, you are encouraged to call Crime Stoppers confidentially at 1-800-638-8477.  If you provide a tip that leads directly to his arrest, you may be eligible for a cash reward.
