Concord, NH - “Fugitive of the Week,” Angela Kulacz, 37, was arrested early this morning by members of the U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force in Franklin, New Hampshire.

Kulacz had been wanted on an outstanding Belknap County arrest warrant since August 31, 2015. This arrest warrant alleges that Kulacz was in violation of her conditions of probation as set forth by a Belknap County Superior Court Judge. Ms. Kulacz was on probation as a result of a conviction for being an accomplice to armed robbery. After being featured as the “Fugitive of the Week,” several tips came in over the past 3 weeks. Today, these tips led to an apartment on South Main Street in Franklin, NH. It was at this apartment that Kulacz was located and arrested without incident. Angela was then transported to the Belknap County Jail to be processed and held pending her initial court appearance.

This arrest was made by several members of the fugitive task force, including members from the Strafford, Rockingham, & Belknap County Sheriff’s Offices, the Franklin Police Department, NH State Police and deputy U.S. Marshals.
