Harrisburg, PA – Today, U.S. Marshal Martin Pane announced
the arrest of Shawn Walker, a 49-year old man, on charges of criminal homicide
and other related offenses.
Earlier today, Deputy U.S. Marshals and task force officers
from the U.S. Marshals Service’s (USMS) Eastern District of North Carolina
arrested Walker at a location in Creedmoor, NC. Walker was turned over to local
authorities pending his extradition to Dauphin County.
Walker was charged by the Harrisburg Bureau of Police with
criminal homicide, carrying a firearm without a license and possession of
firearm. It is alleged that, in the early morning hours of July 12, 2015,
Walker shot his victim, causing his death, in the 400 block of Crescent Street.
United States Marshal Martin J. Pane stated, “The
coordination and cooperation demonstrated by law enforcement in this case led
directly to a dangerous fugitive being taken off the streets. It is our top
priority to arrest violent crime fugitives, especially those who have no regard
for human life.”
The United States Marshals Service worked jointly in this
investigation with personnel from the Harrisburg Bureau of Police as well as
U.S. Marshals from the Eastern District of North Carolina.
