Fugitive moved to Oregon

Christopher Allen Davidson, the Oregon fugitive who was arrested Aug. 10 after a 12-hour search in N. Colfax, waived extradition and was taken back to Oregon. Davidson, 25, was arrested on a warrant issued July 30 by the Oregon Board of Parole after his supervision, assigned after prison release, was suspended.

Colfax Chief Bill Hickman said Thursday Davidson was a suspect in an attempted breakin of a house in the Brown’s addition section of Colfax where the fugitive was arrested after wading across the Palouse River that afternoon.

Hickman said a resident on First Street, who had been away on vacation, returned home to discover damage to a fence and a broken window. Hickman said an extensive amount of blood was found at the scene.
