A U.S. Marshals fugitive task force said Vicosa was wanted on charges of kidnapping, assault and robbery after he allegedly invaded a home in Windsor Township on Tuesday, sexually assaulted his ex-wife, kidnapped his daughters against court orders, and fled the area.
Both Vicosa and Bynum were wanted in Baltimore County for kidnapping and robbery in Cockeysville, Maryland as well. Bynum was suspended from the force, according to WJZ-TV.
Baltimore County Police Chief Melissa Hyatt also said Vicosa carjacked a driver and forced him to drive around the Baltimore area before releasing him unharmed.
