Las Vegas, NV – Two fugitives are back in custody today at the Clark County Detention Center following a coordinated investigation involving state and federal law enforcement agencies, officials confirmed.
According to the Nevada State Police, the arrests were made through a joint fugitive investigation led by the Nevada State Police Division of Parole and Probation, its Warrants and Extraditions Unit, and the U.S. Marshals Service Nevada Violent Offender Task Force. The individuals had allegedly absconded from supervision and were considered a risk to public safety.
Authorities did not immediately release the identities of the fugitives or the original charges they were wanted for. However, officials emphasized that the arrests were the result of close coordination between state, local, and federal partners across Southern Nevada, including the Las Vegas metropolitan area.
“The Division of Parole and Probation is responsible for supporting the successful reintegration of supervised individuals while ensuring compliance with court-ordered conditions,” said Nevada Parole and Probation Chief Tamrah Jackson. She added that when offenders allegedly flee supervision and pose a risk, the Warrants and Extraditions Unit works alongside partner agencies to locate and apprehend them.
U.S. Marshal Gary Schofield echoed that message, saying the U.S. Marshals Service remains committed to locating fugitives regardless of how far they travel. “No matter the distance, we will find you, and we will keep our communities safe,” Schofield said.
The U.S. Marshals Service Nevada Violent Offender Task Force brings together resources from multiple agencies to target dangerous and violent fugitives throughout Clark County and the broader Southern Nevada region.
Officials say both individuals are now securely housed at the Clark County Detention Center as the legal process continues.
