Arizona fugitive found, arrested
A Somerton resident whom U.S. authorities were searching for was found and arrested by state police officers in Mexicali Valley’s Ciudad Morelos, said the Baja California Attorney General’s office.
Authorities said the U.S. Marshals Service asked their state counterparts to find the suspect who had an active arrest warrant in Arizona for sexual abuse and exploitation of a minor.
State police agents found Jonathan Derric McQuitty, 21, at Ciudad Morelos, southwest of the Andrade Port of Entry.
The suspect is considered a sexual predator, the Attorney General’s office said.
According to Baja California authorities, the suspect was accused in 2011 for sexual exploitation and sexual abuse against a minor.
In 2014 McQuitty was accused again for allegedly sexual assault against several minors, including relatives and cousin’s friends.
The Attorney General’s office said the fugitive fled from Arizona and moved to Mexicali to avoid his arrest.
The suspect was turned to officers with the National Immigration Institute of Mexico who deport him to the United States on Friday, according to Customs and Border Protection.
The suspect was booked in Imperial County Jail waiting for his extradition to Yuma County, Arizona.
