Malique Calloo, one of Canada’s most-wanted fugitives, has been arrested.
He was taken into custody in Michigan by members of the United States Marshals Service on Sunday.
The 27-year-old suspect was wanted by the Windsor Police Service for the first-degree murder of Daniel Squalls, who was fatally shot on November 28, 2022.
Members of the Windsor Police Service’s Major Crimes Unit and the Ontario Provincial Police-led Repeat Offender Parole Enforcement (ROPE) Squad located Calloo in Michigan and worked with the U.S. Marshals Service to coordinate the arrest.
"I want to commend the exceptional teamwork among partners and the persistence of our investigators, who never gave up on this case," said Windsor Police Chief, Jason Bellaire.
"It is our hope this arrest will help to bring some degree of closure to the victim's family," he added.
In early December, investigators arrested 25-year-old Hussein Al-Hayawi, who was also charged with first-degree murder in the incident.
The investigation remains ongoing. Windsor police ask anyone with information to contact the Major Crimes Unit at 519-255-6700 ext. 4830 or Crime Stoppers at 519-258-8477 (TIPS).
