   STONE COUNTY, Miss. (WDAM) - A man wanted in connection with a death   
   investigation and missing person case in Colorado has ties to Stone County   
   Mississippi, WDAM has learned.   
      
   Investigators in El Paso County, Colorado, announced they are looking for   
   Johnny Rankin Morris, 46, and Hailey Diane Cole, 43, and said the two   
   could be in Colorado or en route to Mississippi.   
      
   Morris was born in the Picayune area, according to Stone County Sheriff   
   Todd Stewart, who said his deputies are looking out for him if he travels   
   to Mississippi.   
      
   Wiggins Police Chief Jeff Thomas said Morris was arrested in a 2023 case   
   after a domestic violence kidnapping report. Morris was out on bond.   
      
   As of Friday, neither Thomas nor Stewart had specific reasons to believe   
   the couple was definitively traveling to Mississippi and did not want to   
   alarm neighbors, but they did want people to be aware of the potential   
   connections to south Mississippi.   
      
   According to the El Paso County Sheriff’s Office, their investigation   
   began last Thursday, Dec. 19, after officials were called out to a home in   
   the area.   
      
   Deputies said they saw “large quantities of blood in multiple locations”   
   throughout the home, and as a result of the call for service, BOLOs were   
   issued for two missing men: Morris and Stephen Walker, 37.   
      
   On Monday, EPSO asked for the public’s assistance in locating a vehicle of   
   interest in the case: A black 2013 Audi A4 with Colorado license plate   
   MYZFYT.   
      
   Officials said Tuesday that the vehicle was located at a trailhead in Park   
   County, Colorado after a welfare check call to a home about a half-mile   
   away.   
      
   When deputies arrived at that home, they said they discovered the person   
   living there had “indirect ties” to the initial missing persons case.   
   Officials then searched the home and located a dead man.   
      
   On Thursday, the EPSO asked for the public’s help locating a new vehicle   
   of interest, as well as three people connected to their investigation of   
   the Dec. 19 incident.   
      
   The vehicle officials are searching for is a blue 1994 Ford F-150 with a   
   “HUNTER” sticker on the left fender, Colorado license plate TQQ039.   
      
   Officials are still searching for Walker who they say is missing under   
   “suspicious circumstances.” Authorities said he has tan skin, black hair,   
   brown eyes, and tattoos on his right arm.   
      
   In the Park County death, the Park County Sheriff’s Office requested   
   assistance from the Colorado Bureau of Investigation and EPSO. That death   
   is still under investigation, and the person who died has not been   
   identified at this time.   
      
   Officials said Morris and Cole should be considered armed and dangerous.   
   If you see them, you are asked to call 911.
