The "Fugitive of the Week" continues to be a very successful tool that has resulted in the location and arrest of numerous fugitives since its implementation in 2007. Additionally, the "Fugitive of the Week" is distributed statewide to all law enforcement officers.

Today the U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force received a tip that Bergeron was located at the Tuckaway Tavern in Raymond, NH. Members of the U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force were able to act quickly on the tip and arrest Bergeron without incident.

This arrest was made by several member agencies of the U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force including; the Belknap, Hillsborough, Rockingham and Strafford County Sheriff's Offices and the Greenfield (New Hampshire) Police Department along with deputy U.S. Marshals.

Since the inception of the New Hampshire Joint Fugitive Task Force in 2002, these partnerships have resulted in over 7,908 arrests (Updated as of 12/16/2019). These arrests have ranged in seriousness from murder, assault, unregistered sex offenders, probation and parole violations and numerous other serious offenses.
