Wayne Arthur Silsbee turns himself in

Wayne Arthur Silsbee who eluded authorities for 23 years has turned himself in.

He was wanted by the FBI for "multiple incidents of sexual assault" between September 1995 and April 1996 involving girls between 8 and 10 years old.

The FBI said Silsbee knew each of the victims through babysitting for them or taking them to events.

The FBI says the now‑62‑year‑old man walked into the Oregon City Police Department and turned himself in.

It is not clear why, after 23 years, Silsbee decided to stop running.
