Wanted Missouri man arrested after McCracken manhunt

A wanted Missouri man was captured Thursday afternoon following an hours-long manhunt along the Graves and McCracken County line.

Authorities said they were notified early Thursday that 43-year-old Bryan Ditto was wanted in Missouri, and could be in Graves County.

Ditto's vehicle was spotted on KY 1820, before he drove into a field and fled on foot into a wooded area.

After hours of searching acres of farmland and creek beds in the Melber area, Ditto was spotted near a home on KY 1820.

He was arrested and charged with fleeing or evading, criminal mischief, receiving stolen property, possession of methamphetamine, and drug paraphernalia.

Ditto was additionally served with a warrant from Missouri for multiple offenses, including the violation of a protective order.

He was taken to the McCracken County jail.
