For the second time in less than two (2) weeks, Federal Agents from the Embassy of the United States representing the United States Marshal Service (USMS), Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), and Diplomatic Security Service (DSS), working closely with units from the Trinidad and Tobago Police Service, Port-of-Spain Division (TTPS), facilitated an arrest for an extradition warrant.
In a Media Release today (Thursday 25th April, 2024), the U.S. Embassy said on 17th April, 2024, Vincent Roberts, a U.S. Permanent Resident fugitive wanted in the state of New York for attempted murder, was arrested in the Laventille area of Trinidad. Also playing key roles and critical to the operation’s success were the New York City Police Department (NYPD) and the Kings County, New York, District Attorney’s Office. Roberts will be held in custody as the extradition process is finalized for his eventual return to the United States to stand trial for his alleged crimes. “U.S. Federal Agents worked closely with TTPS in co-ordination and planning, during an exhaustive manhunt spanning multiple months, to locate and arrest the subject,” the U.S. Embassy added. U.S. Ambassador Candace Bond said, “For the second time in two (2) weeks, the extensive co-operation and close working relationship between United States and Trinidad and Tobago law enforcement agencies highlights the strength and effectiveness of our bilateral partnership. Nations working together to bring criminals to justice is a critical mission around the world, and others can now look to our joint efforts between the United States of America and Trinidad and Tobago as an example to emulate. We are very proud of our shared success and are eager to continue our efforts to provide safety and security to the people of our two (2) great countries.” [Source: U.S. Embassy Trinidad & Tobago] We are a small operation.
