Williamsport, PA – Today, U.S. Marshal Martin Pane announced
the arrest of Tal Katz, a 28-year-old man, wanted for attempted murder and
other related offenses in New York City.
On December 16, deputy U.S. marshals and task force officers
from the Middle District of Pennsylvania arrested Katz without incident in the
400 block of South Main Street in Jersey Shore, PA. Katz was turned over to
local authorities pending judicial proceedings.
It is alleged that Katz stabbed his victim multiple times.
The victim was treated at an area hospital in New York for puncture wounds to
the shoulder, torso and thigh as well as lacerations to the face. An arrest
warrant was issued out of Queens County New York charging Katz with attempted
murder in the second degree and assault in the first degree.
The USMS worked jointly in this investigation with personnel
from the USMS New York/New Jersey Regional Fugitive Task Force, Lycoming County
Sheriff’s Office, Union County Sheriff’s Office, Pennsylvania State Police,
Pennsylvania Board of Probation and Parole and the Jersey Shore Police
Department.
United States Marshal Pane stated, “An extremely dangerous
and unpredictable suspect is now in custody. The collective efforts of federal,
state and local law enforcement ensured jurisdictional lines did not impede the
capture of this attempted murder suspect.”
