On March 17, the Sedalia Police Department asked for help from the public locating a teenager with an active warrant. That teen still has not been located.
According to a Sedalia Police report, officers responded to the report of shots fired at Centennial Park and found several shell casings on February 27, 2021. They were told 18-year-old Eabey Carlos-Gonzalez was at Bothwell Regional Health Center being treated for a gunshot wound. An investigation revealed gunfire was exchanged between two vehicles- one of them being occupied by Carlos-Gonzalez.
Court documents say Carlos-Gonzalez, who is now 19, is charged with assault in the first degree or attempt, armed criminal action and unlawful use of a weapon. Bond originally was set at $75,000 cash or surety. However, the court amended bond to $25,000 cash or surety on December 6, and Carlos-Gonzalez posted surety bond on December 9.
Carlos-Gonzalez’s case was bound over to the trial division, and he pleaded not guilty and waived formal arraignment on December 6.
However, Carlos-Gonzalez failed to appear for a hearing on March 7, and the judge revoked his bond and issued a no-bond warrant.
According to a flyer from Sedalia Police, Carlos-Gonzalez is a Hispanic male about 5-foot-6 and 117 pounds.
Anyone with information as to the whereabouts of Carlos-Gonzalez is urged to contact the Sedalia Police Department’s Crime Resolution Unit; or, if outside of Sedalia, contact your local law-enforcement agency. You can remain anonymous.
Authorities say you should not take any police action yourself.
