The Preston County sheriff died Monday night, according to the Preston County Sheriff’s Office.
Sheriff Paul “Moe” Pritt died at J.W. Ruby Memorial Hospital due to complications from an illness, Sheriff’s Captain Thomas Mitter said.
Pritt was the only candidate running for sheriff in Preston County.
Pritt, of Terra Alta, was first employed at the sheriff’s office in 1993, and since that time, he had trained numerous officers, had investigated serious crimes from murder to sexual assault to traffic offenses and shoplifting complaints, according to the sheriff’s office’s website.
As a lifelong resident of Preston County, he was a graduate of East Preston Senior High and Fairmont State University, where he graduated with a degree in criminal justice.
Pritt was also the head coach of the softball team at Preston County High School, a role he filled in 2019 after being a volunteer coach, according to the sheriff’s office’s website. He coached T-ball, little league and pony league as a youth league coach and board member for over 20 years, the website says.

On May 2nd, 2024 first responders were called to Rt 219 in Huttonsville for a multi- vehicle crash. It was reported that there were minor injuries. I arrived on scene and observed a large farm tractor with a disk implement heading south on 219. The disk mechanism was involved in the crash which struck a white Jeep which then drug the Jeep into a maroon dodge truck pulling a horse trailer. Witnesses advised the disk mechanism deployed during transit which took up most of the two lanes of the highway. Driver of the white Jeep and the driver of the dodge truck both moved as far right toward the guardrail as possible before making contact with the farm implement. Driver of the Jeep was transported to DMC for minor injuries. Assisting me on scene were Deputy Hebb, Elbon, and Knotts, Randolph EMS, and Huttonsville Mill Creek vol fire department. The DOH closed the road to thru traffic until the farm machinery was removed from the highway.
