Members of the Massachusetts State Police Violent Fugitive Apprehension Section (VFAS) and Brockton and Fall River Police yesterday evening located and arrested ANILDO L. CORREIA, 24, who was wanted for the stabbing homicide of a Brockton teenager during a brawl at a city park.
Troopers assigned to the VFAS South Team and local officers located CORREIA hiding inside an apartment at a Fall River address at approximately 5:30 p.m. Sunday. VFAS troopers and local officers, working with State Police detectives attached to the Plymouth District Attorney’s Office, had collected intelligence that suggested that CORREIA was at that address.
CORREIA was taken into custody and transported to the Brockton Police Department, where he was booked on a warrant charging him with the April 22 homicide of Ywron Martins during a fight at the park where Martins had gone to play basketball.
CORREIA is expected to be arraigned in Brockton District Court today.
