U.S. Marshals and Sheriff’s Office Arrest Man Wanted for Rape and Child Porn Charges |
Pensacola, FL – The U.S. Marshals Florida Regional Fugitive Task Force
and the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office TAC Team captured an Alabama fugitive
yesterday who failed to appear on charges of 2nd Degree Rape and Possession of
Pornographic Material of a Minor. U.S. Marshals were conducting surveillance of
a residence where Dion Demetrius Taylor was reportedly hiding out on Sioux Trail
in Pensacola. The Marshals observed Taylor, 33, drive away from the home in a
large SUV with an unidentified woman and three children. Because Taylor has an
extensive history of violence, the Marshals were apprehensive to stop Taylor for
fear of the safety of the woman and children. The Task Force called for aid from
the ECSO TAC Team while they followed Taylor into the Sunrise Apartment complex
on Fairfield Highway. Task Force officers and ECSO units including a K9
surrounded Taylor who gave up. Upon questioning Taylor said he was Dion
“Williams” from Chicago. Sometime later before being brought to jail he
confessed that he was the wanted Taylor. Additional information about the U.S. Marshals Service can be found at http://www.usmarshals.gov. #### America’s Oldest Federal Law Enforcement Agency |
