Florin Rostas, 46, is described as a White male, 5’ 10”, and 220 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes.

Also being sought is 33-year-old Constantine Voicu.

Warrants have been issued for all three, who are charged with participating in a criminal organization and theft under $5,000.

Constantin and Rostas are also charged with theft over $5,000.
