On November 13, 2013 The Kanawha County Sheriff’s Office STOP team was conducting a drug investigation in the eastern part of Kanawha County. During the course of this investigation we received information that an escapee was staying on 3rd avenue in Glasgow. We were advised that the subjects name was Kevin Dale Burford and he was currently in NCIC. Kevin Burford escaped from work release approximately 1 month ago and had apparently been staying in the Glasgow area during this time.
The STOP team responded to 113 3rd Avenue in Glasgow and located Burford in this residence attempting to hide. He was taken into custody without incident. Burford was still wearing his department of corrections T-shirt with his name and department of corrections number on it.
