Task Force Fugitives |
|
Task Force Name: |
Southern Ohio Fugitive Apprehension Task Force (SOFAST) |
|
|
Purpose: |
The Southern Ohio Fugitive Apprehension Strike Team (SOFAST) is a
multi-jurisdictional law enforcement organization created to arrest the most
violent felons in the Southern District of Ohio. Strike teams are headquartered
in the largest metropolitan areas: Columbus, Dayton, and Cincinnati. The SOFAST
is comprised of agents, officers, and deputies from multiple federal, state, and
local law enforcement agencies. Each member of SOFAST is deputized as a Special
Deputy U.S. Marshal, thereby giving each member the ability to travel in an
effort to apprehend the worst criminal offenders. The SOFAST emphasizes
identifying and pursuing fugitives who have been documented as gang members and
sharing gang intelligence with local law enforcement. The goal is to arrest the
most violent offenders and gain the trust and cooperation of our citizens to
help combat the violence stemming from gangs, guns, and drugs. |
