Sex Offender Fugitive Who Assaulted Officer Wanted By NH Department Of Corrections

CONCORD, NH — The New Hampshire Department of Corrections is asking for the public’s help finding a fugitive who has not been seen for six months and is presumed to be “armed and dangerous” with “violent tendencies.”

Douglas K. Moore is 36, white, about 6 feet, 10 inches tall, and weighs around 250 pounds. He has blue eyes and brown hair. Moore also has tattoos on his left upper arm, chest, forearms, and shoulders.

Moore was last believed to be homeless in Dover but also has ties to Alfred, Maine.

Officials said Moore is a sex offender, due to a sexual assault conviction in October 2014, who previously failed to register. His criminal history dates back to 2009 and includes receiving stolen property, mischief, drug possession, theft, resisting, assault, and felon in possession of a dangerous weapon. Moore, officials said, had also been convicted of sexual abuse of a minor and aggravated assault.

After being convicted on simple assault charges, for injuring a police officer, he received a suspended sentence and stopped reporting to probation.
