South Lake Tahoe police officers and El Dorado County sheriff’s deputies have been looking for an at-large parolee since early Thursday evening.

Reports are that the fugitive fled out a window at the Beverly Lodge in South Lake Tahoe on March 12 shortly after 5pm and then went to the parking lot as Lakeland Village.

Officers have also been scouring the Timber Cove Pier area.

The man is described as white, buzz haircut, round face, with cheek piercings and tattoos. He was last seen wearing jeans and no shirt.

It is not known why officers are trying to track him down. No South Lake Tahoe police officers were available for comment.
