The man in the picture is 53 year-old Levester Myers. Police have a warrant for his arrest. They believe he stabbed his wife, Adriene Myers, to death on Whalley Avenue on Aug. 8. They’re looking everywhere for him.

Including, Tuesday evening around 6:30, on the B2 CT Transit bus heading toward Whalley on Broadway, right past the Yale Bookstore.

Traffic suddenly came to a halt there as sirens screamed. At least 10 cruisers converged on the scene and the nearby hydra-headed intersection of Broadway, Tower Parkway, Dixwell, Goffe, Whalley, and Elm. Cops poured out of the cars and rushed onto the bus.

Moments earlier a pedestrian had notified a Yale cop that he saw someone resembling the 5 foot-9, 160 pound middle-aged Levester, who’s believed to have a shaved head these days and to remain in town.

After a few minutes the officers returned to the street. False alarm. “It looked just like him,” said a cop leaving the scene.

According to police spokeswoman Bonnie Winchester, some officers recognized the lookalike as a different man who lives around Ferry Street in Fair Haven. “The man handled it very nicely,” Winchester said. Understandably, “the other passengers were a little agitated.”

The police are still seeking the public’s help in finding Levester. Click here to read their release on the subject.
