Lolo Man Wanted for Breaking Parole After Multiple DUIs

Missoula County authorities searching for Lolo man by the name of Joe Allen Hansen, wanted for violating his parole.

"He resides in Lolo, the last known residence we have listed for him was 1408 Lakeside Drive," said Missoula County Sheriff's Department spokeswoman Vivica Crowser. "He was given several opportunities to turn himself in, but he actually has a felony probation violation for absconding his probation. The reason he's on felony probation is because he got a felony DUI which means he either had three or more."

Pavalone said that Hansen's list of past crimes includes more than just DUI. A judge has recommended bond for Hansen at $50,000, which is unusually high. Pavlone says a typical bond posting would be in the $10,000 range.

Hansen is 6'1'', weighs about 235 pounds and is about 59 years old.

Anyone with information about Hansen's whereabouts is advised to call 911, the Missoula County Sheriff's Department, or Five Valley Crimestoppers . Calls to Crimestoppers are anonymous and can be made by dialling 721-4444
