Another of the county's most wanted suspects has been caught.

Barney David Collins, 40, was stopped for a traffic violation at Lake Mead Boulevard and Simmons Street Oct. 30 at 3:35 a.m. and immediately taken into custody because of outstanding warrants for burglary and grand larceny.

Collins was profiled in the SUN Sept. 18 as part of a cooperative effort with local authorities to track down suspects that have failed to return to court.

To date, 118 of 159 persons deemed to be the county's most wanted suspects have been taken into custody or otherwise accounted for.
