Gary Edward Lasher is wanted for his alleged involvement in a kidnapping in Oxnard, California. On February 21, 2004, Lasher, who was having marital problems, went to his mother-in-law's residence while he reportedly was despondent over the separation from his wife and child. It is alleged that while Lasher was at his mother-in-law's residence, he became physically violent towards her and choked her into unconsciousness. He later allegedly placed her in the trunk of his car and fled the area. Lasher's mother-in-law eventually managed to escape by rolling out of the trunk onto the highway. She sustained numerous injuries, but was treated and released from a local hospital. Lasher eluded capture and remains at large.

Lasher was charged with kidnapping, kidnapping for ransom, and false imprisonment with violence, in a state arrest warrant which was issued on February 21, 2004, by the Ventura County, California Superior Court. On February 23, 2004, a federal arrest warrant was issued by the United States District Court, Central District of California, charging Lasher with unlawful flight to avoid prosecution.
