[Source: Newsday] A fugitive wanted by United States authorities for serious offenses, was captured yesterday (Wednesday 17th April, 2024) during a joint intelligence-led operation. According to the Trinidad and Tobago Police Service (TTPS), the suspect was arrested pursuant to outstanding warrants for the offences of attempted murder in the second degree, attempted assault in the first degree and possession of a weapon in the second degree, committed within the jurisdiction of the United States of America.
The TTPS initiated the pursuit of the suspect following intelligence received from an international source in March 2024. The intelligence suggested that the suspect was in Trinidad, after he fled the United States to evade law enforcement investigations. The suspect, who allegedly returned to Trinidad in December 2022, had reportedly taken measures to conceal his whereabouts, including relocating to an undisclosed address within the Laventille area. While undertaking diligent surveillance efforts, the TTPS said Officers observed the wanted man walking along Despers Crescent on Wednesday (17th April, 2024). Subsequently, an intelligence unit of the TTPS along with Officers of the Guard and Emergency Branch (GEB), swiftly co-ordinated an operation leading to his apprehension. The Officers executed the extradition warrant and the suspect was taken into custody and conveyed to the Woodbrook Police Station, where he remains detained, pending further legal proceedings. The TTPS said it “remains committed to collaborating with international law enforcement agencies to ensure that fugitives are brought to justice, regardless of their location.” |
