Williamsport, PA – Today, U.S. Marshal Martin Pane announced
the arrest of Derrick Boone, a 39-year old man, on charges of criminal homicide
and other related offenses.
Earlier this morning, Deputy U.S. Marshals and task force
officers from the U.S. Marshals Service’s (USMS) Southern District of Ohio
Fugitive Apprehension Strike Team (SOFAST) arrested Derrick Boone in the 6400
block of Hammel Street in Cincinnati, OH. Boone was turned over to local
authorities pending his extradition to Lycoming County.
Boone was charged by the Williamsport Bureau of Police with
criminal homicide and multiple counts of firearm violations and aggravated
assault. It is alleged that, in the early morning hours of April 25, 2015,
Boone shot three individuals after an altercation in the 500 block of 5th
Avenue. One of the victims died from his injuries.
United States Marshal Martin J. Pane stated, “The
coordination and cooperation demonstrated by law enforcement in this case led
directly to a dangerous fugitive being taken off the streets. It is our top
priority to arrest violent crime fugitives, especially those who have no regard
for human life.”
The United States Marshals Service worked jointly in this
investigation with personnel from the Williamsport Bureau of Police and the
Lycoming County Sheriff’s Office, as well as U.S. Marshals from the Eastern
District of Pennsylvania and the Southern District of Ohio.
