ICE Arrests Illegal Alien on Canada’s Top 25 Most Wanted Fugitives List in Mississippi

Adrian Walker is wanted in Canada for murder and facing federal charges for illegal possession of a firearm

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has released the following statement regarding U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) after arresting 30-year-old illegal alien Adrian Vincent Walker, a Canadian top-25-most-wanted international fugitive accused of first-degree murder. He now faces federal charges for illegal entry and illegal possession of a firearm.

On March 23, ICE arrested criminal illegal alien Adrian Walker at a residence in Tupelo, Mississippi. During the operation, he was found to illegally be in possession of a firearm.

The Toronto Canada Police Service (TPS) also has an active warrant for Walker’s arrest following a May 7, 2024 shooting in the York District of Toronto. TPS has charged Walker with first-degree murder and attempted murder.

Walker has previously served over three years in Canadian prison for aggravated assault.

He entered the U.S. illegally at an unknown date and time.

“Thanks to the brave men and women of ICE, one of Canada’s most wanted criminals is behind bars. This illegal alien was wanted for a murder in Canada,” said Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis. “He is now facing charges for illegal entry into the U.S. and illegal possession of a firearm. DHS is grateful to our law enforcement officers and partners who took this illegal alien off of our streets and behind bars where he will finally face justice for his crimes.”

This case was investigated and prosecuted by the Homeland Security Task Force (HSTF) as part of Operation Take Back America.
