US authorities seek Trinidadian fugitive who could be in Jamaica

United States law enforcement authorities are seeking a Trinidadian fugitive – Andre Neverson - who they believe could be in hiding in Jamaica or another Caribbean country.

Neverson is wanted for allegedly killing his sister and an ex-girlfriend in 2002, after which it is believed he fled the United States.   

According to a release from the US Embassy in Kingston, Neverson allegedly murdered his sister by shooting her in the head and stomach on July 8, 2002. The next day, he allegedly abducted a former girlfriend. She was found dead two days later with a mortal head wound.  

At the time of both murders, he was on parole in the State of New York for attempted murder in the second degree, assault in the first degree and criminal possession of a firearm. 

It’s alleged that in November 2002, Neverson, armed with a handgun, entered the home of another ex-girlfriend in an attempt to visit his daughter. The woman's brother interrupted the unannounced visit, and Neverson fled with no further incident. The New York City Police Department searched the area for Neverson, but never located him. 

Neverson has been classified as one of the U.S. Marshals Service’s “15 Most Wanted” Fugitives. He is also wanted by the U. S. Department of Homeland Security Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Division of Parole for New York State and the NYPD.

The 49 year-old fugitive is described as a black male. He is about 6’2” tall and 240 pounds (last reported). He has brown eyes, black hair and a muscular build.

He has been characterised as having a violent criminal history “with a pronounced pattern of violence toward women.”

Multi-lingual

Neverson reportedly speaks several languages and is known to always carry a firearm. The release says he usually keeps his head shaved but has been known to wear wigs to disguise himself. Investigators believe Neverson is computer savvy.

Due to his criminal history and the nature of his alleged crimes, Neverson is considered armed and dangerous.  It is said that he has ties to Jamaica, Trinidad & Tobago, Barbados, Bahamas, Grenada, St. Vincent and Canada.

Reward

A reward of up to US$25,000 is being offered for information leading directly to Neverson’s arrest. Anyone with information is urged to contact the nearest U.S. Marshals Service office, American Embassy/Consulate, or call the U.S. Marshals Service Communications center at 1-800-336-0102.
