Fugitive on Goodyear's most-wanted list nabbed in Mexico

One of Goodyear's most-wanted fugitives, a convicted child molester, has been arrested in Mexico.

Federal officers tracked Dale Britton Washburn, 59, to San Carlos, Mexico, where Mexican officers arrested him in the state of Sonora.

He was turned over to the U.S. Marshals Service and Goodyear police.

California courts twice convicted Washburn of sexual abuse of a minor. He was accused of sexually molesting children at knifepoint, according to Goodyear police.

Police obtained an arrest warrant after Washburn missed appointments with his probation officer.
