PORTLAND, Ore. — The search for a suspect in the fatal shooting of her husband continues, Portland Police Bureau (PPB) reported Friday.

Analiesa Golde is suspected of killing her husband, 37-year-old Phillip Pierce. Pierce was found on Jan. 26 inside a home in the Lents neighborhood.

PPB said detectives have reason to believe Golde may be in or around Toutle or Mount St. Helens in Southwest Washington. Police are asking anyone who lives or visits in the area to be on the lookout for Golde and her vehicle, a 2015 burnt orange Toyota 4Runner with Oregon license plate 501HSB. The vehicle has decals on the back windows (see photo below).

Golde, who is wanted for second-degree murder, is considered armed and dangerous, police said. Anyone who spots Golde should call 911 immediately. A cash reward of up to $2,500 is offered to anyone with information reported to Crime Stoppers of Oregon that leads to an arrest.
