If you were charged back then, yes. If you weren't charged until recently, no.
If you have a warrant, there is no time limit on being charged. You can't just simply run away for a long enough time to outlast the statute of limitations. If you can look up the website of the court of the jurisdiction you were in, then do so and let me know what you see. Many times in cases like this you can utilize a lawyer to contact the prosecutor to settle the case in abstentia, so call me to discuss. 216.952.1990.
