A Pitcairn man and most wanted fugitive, has been arrested in Nevada.

The Allegheny County Sheriff’s Office says 28-year-old Jamal Bailey had been on the run since April 2020 after he didn’t show up for a trial where he was facing two firearms charges and one drug charge.

Last October, detectives learned that Bailey was using an address in Las Vegas.

Las Vegas Police were notified of Bailey but were unable to catch him for the past six months, until yesterday when he was taken into custody.

Bailey will remain in jail pending extradition back to Allegheny County.
