Suffield Police Snare Fugitive Wanted in Massachusetts

SUFFIELD, CT — Suffield police arrested a man wanted as a fugitive from justice from Massachusetts Friday, and are holding him in lieu of $100,000 bond.

Kyle Mitchell, 32, whose last known address is in East Hartland, had been wanted on an arrest warrant by Southwick (MA) police for 12 counts of felony burglary.

On Friday afternoon, Suffield police received information that Mitchell would be traveling to 972 Sheldon Street, home of the Landry-Sic Post #9544 V.F.W. Police established surveillance of the area, and upon Mitchell's arrival, he was taken into custody without incident by uniformed and plainclothes officers, Capt. Chris McKee said.

Mitchell was additionally charged with operating a motor vehicle under suspension, as his Connecticut driver’s license was suspended. He was held on an additional $1,000 bond for this offense. He had previously been arrested for operating under suspension by Bloomfield police during January 2017, McKee said.

Mitchell is scheduled to be arraigned Monday in Enfield Superior Court.
