OKLAHOMA CITY – Attorney General Gentner Drummond is enlisting the public’s help to track down two fugitives from the law recently added to his 10 Most Wanted list.
The Multi-County Grand Jury indicted Min Yong Chen, 57, and five others in March 2024 on a range of felony counts involving drugs and weapons. Authorities say Chen, a Chinese national, moved from Flushing, N.Y., to Oklahoma to conspire with others in the marijuana industry. He failed to appear in July of this year for a court date and is believed to have fled Oklahoma.
The second addition, Carlos Uribe, 27, faces a charge of kidnapping. On July 14, 2024, Moore police responded to a domestic disturbance where a female victim told officers that Uribe had ignored her requests to leave her apartment, pushed her into a bedroom and physically prevented her from leaving. At that time, officers noted that the victim had visible injuries they later determined were from a previous altercation with Uribe, who already faced two charges of domestic assault and battery against a pregnant woman.
Drummond noted that monetary rewards are possible for information that can lead directly to the apprehension of Chen and Uribe.
“I am proud of the successes we have seen as a result of the 10 Most Wanted program,” he said. “The initiative gives the public an opportunity to come forward with information that can help us track down these dangerous criminals and hold them accountable. It is an excellent tool for law enforcement.”
The 10 Most Wanted program began in September 2024 to spotlight violent fugitives and encourage public assistance in bringing them to justice. Since its launch, 16 fugitives accused of crimes such as murder, rape and drug trafficking have been captured. Learn more at the Attorney General’s 10 Most Wanted page.
