Josiah Rosales, 29, cut off the monitor fled from law enforcement on foot from the 17800 block of Southwest Breckenridge Lane in Aloha.

Rosales posted $125,000 bail last month after being arrested for 18 sex crimes against minors, according to the Washington County Sheriff’s Office.

Deputies are actively searching the area for Rosales, who they say stands about 5-feet-9-inches tall and weighs approximately 300 pounds.

Rosales has a felony warrant out for his arrest. Deputies say if you see Rosales or know where he is, call 911 and do not approach him.
