A vehicle matching the description of the suspect vehicle was located along the road in Des Moines later that day. The vehicle contained spent ammunition and a blown out back window. Deputies made contact with Lester and a female shortly after the incident, but he was uncooperative and has since been unable to reach.

Lester has previous felony convictions and should be considered armed and dangerous. He is believed to be hiding out in Des Moines but also has connections to Creston and Algona. Recent photographs of Lester are attached and include images of his tattoos.
