SALISBURY — A Salisbury man found hiding at his mother’s home was charged with failing to register as a sex offender.
Jimmy Wayne Foushee
The Rowan County Sheriff’s Office charged Jimmy Wayne Foushee, 29, of the 1900 block of North U.S. 29, with felony failure to register as a sex offender and misdemeanor resist, obstruct, delay an officer.
His mother, Frances Diane Foushee, 56, also the 1900 block of North U.S. 29, was issued a misdemeanor citation for resist, obstruct, delay an officer for hiding him at her home, Sheriff’s Capt. John Sifford said.
Davidson County officials notified Rowan officials on Wednesday they had information that Foushee had not registered and provided an address where he might be located. Rowan deputies determined from neighbors that Foushee was at his mother’s house.
As Rowan deputies approached the home, a man who matched Foushee’s description immediately slammed the door. Officers knocked and were met by Frances Foushee, who told them her son was not there.
“She said he was there earlier but was not there now,” Sifford said.
Officers searched the home and found Foushee hiding in a wardrobe in the living room. He was arrested and remains in the Rowan County Detention Center under a $12,500 secured bond.
