Emiliano E. Flores Gonzalez, 25, of Puerto Rico, United States has been arrested. In March 2023, the Centro Judicial de Ponce in Ponce, Puerto Rico issued a warrant for his arrest.
Since then, Flores had been wanted by the Negociado de la Policía de Puerto Rico on the warrant. The bureau is part of the Puerto Rico Violent Offender Task Force (PRVOTF), which is led by the U.S. Marshals Service.
Aside from violating the Weapons Law, Flores allegedly committed domestic violence. Both crimes are a felony.
The violation case is pending. After being released on bail, Flores violated his bail conditions and went on the lam.
While Flores was on the run, the Capital Area Regional Fugitive Task Force (CARFTF) of the USMS in Baltimore, Maryland, USA worked on a collateral lead from the USMS in Puerto Rico. On April 24, 2024, the Puerto Rican fugitive was located in Maryland.
Flores was arrested without incident and transported to the federal court in Baltimore for processing. He will be extradited to Puerto Rico.
