Escape Attempt Ends Quickly
WEST VIRGINIA...
The flight from justice for a Logan County resident charged in a recent incident ended just a few short hours later at the home of his parents. Matsman Farley, 48, of Chapmanville traveled to the home of Daniel Messer, of Bell Road, just south of Danville on December 17th and began arguing with the man."We believe that at some point during the argument Matsman Farley drew a handgun and shot Daniel Messer in the abdomen." Deputies from the Boone County Sheriff’s Department and the West Virginia State Police responded quickly, but, by the time they arrived, the suspect was no longer there. Farley was quickly identified as the alleged gunman. It was possible to rapidly track him to his parents’ home in Chapmanville. Farley surrendered to Chapmanville Police and state troopers and was soon turned over to Boone County Deputies.
