$10,000 Reward Offered in Search for Latin King Fugitive
| FBI Chicago January 16, 2009 |
Robert D. Grant, Special Agent-in-Charge of the Chicago office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) announced today that a reward of up to $10,000 is being offered for information leading to the location and arrest of DANNY DOMINGUEZ, age 23, whose last known address was 2800 South Trumbull in Chicago.
DOMINGUEZ has been the subject of a nationwide manhunt, coordinated by Chicago FBI’s Joint Task Force on Gangs (JTFG), since September of this year, when he was charged in a criminal complaint filed in U.S. District Court in Chicago with violation of federal drug and firearms laws.
DOMINGUEZ is alleged to be a member of the Latin Kings street gang and is charged with overseeing the distribution of cocaine at various locations throughout the City of Chicago. DOMINGUEZ was among 40 gang members and associates charged as the result of an investigation code named “Operation Pesadilla,” which targeted the leadership of the notorious street gang. DOMINGUEZ is one of only four defendants from this case who is still at large.
DOMINGUEZ, who is also known as “Baby Trigger” and “Baby T,” is described as a Hispanic/male, 23 years of age, 5’9” tall, medium build, weighing approximately 170 pounds. He has black hair, brown eyes with a slight mustache and goatee. DOMINGUEZ has the letters “L K” tattooed on his chest, has an extensive criminal record and should be considered armed and dangerous.
Anyone recognizing DOMINGUEZ or having any information as to his current whereabouts is asked to call the Chicago FBI at (312) 421-6700.
The Chicago FBI’s Joint Task Force on Gangs is comprised of FBI special agents and officers from the Chicago Police Department, Gang Crimes Unit.
The public is reminded that a complaint is not evidence of guilt and that all defendants in a criminal case are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
