The Pennsylvania State Police (PSP) recently released its Ten Most Wanted list with new additions taking the place of fugitives who have been captured.

Three new suspects are on the PSP’s Ten Most Wanted list. Jordan Alexander Allen is wanted for aggravated assault with a firearm, Samuel Irizarry is wanted for attempted homicide, and Rakeem Markell Jones is wanted for attempted homicide.

Fugitives are selected for the Ten Most Wanted list based on the severity of the crime and the availability of suspect information. A poster of the Ten Most Wanted is available here.

“The Pennsylvania State Police and its federal and local law enforcement partners are committed to enhancing public safety by getting dangerous fugitives off the streets,” said Major George Bivens, Acting Deputy Commissioner of Operations. “We ask anyone with information concerning the whereabouts of any wanted individual to come forward and provide a tip to law enforcement.”

Tips may be submitted through the Pennsylvania Crime Stoppers website, pacrimestoppers.org, or by calling 1-800-4-PA-TIPS. All tips to Pennsylvania Crime Stoppers are anonymous and may be eligible for a cash reward.

One of the former most-wanted fugitives was apprehended based on a tip submitted to Crime Stoppers. The tipster was rewarded $5,000.
