Fugitive from Hubbell turns himself in at jail

HOUGHTON, MI--   A Houghton County man wanted for writing bad checks, then for kidnapping, has turned himself in to authorities.  

State Police from the Calumet Post say Raymond Ojala, Jr., 30, of Hubbell appeared at the Houghton County Jail Saturday. 

He was last seen on Thanksgiving with Christina Gagnon, 32, of Calumet, who was suspected of several counts of uttering and publishing and forgery.  The pair fled the area with Gagnon’s 11-year-old son, and have since been wanted for custodial interference.

Police say warrants have been issued for Gagnon’s arrest.  She’s believed to be in the Green Bay area with her son, who is considered to be a missing endangered child. 

Nicole was born near Detroit but has lived in the U.P. most of her life. She graduated from Marquette Senior High School and attended Michigan State and Northern Michigan Universities, graduating from NMU in 1993 with a degree in English.
