Accused NH Fentanyl Dealer Captured By U.S. Marshals

UPDATE: Kevin Paul Webster was captured in Nashua after U.S. Marshals received a tip that he might be hiding out in an apartment on Tyler Street. Members of the Joint Fugitive Task Force went to the apartment, and were able to locate and arrest Webster, without incident. Webster was taken to the U.S. District Court in Concord for processing, and holding pending his initial court appearance later this afternoon.

Webster's arrest was made with the cooperative support of several members of the U.S. Marshals including members from the Belknap, Hillsborough and Rockingham county sheriff’s offices and officers from the Nashua Police Department.

CONCORD, NH — The District of New Hampshire - New Hampshire Joint Fugitive Task Force is searching for a southern New Hampshire man, accused of dealing fentanyl. Kevin Paul Webster, 61, is 5-feet, 11-inches tall, and weighs around 220 lbs. He has blue eyes and brown hair.

In the past, according to the U.S. Marshals Service, he has used the aliases "Ken Paul Webster" and "Kevin A. Webster."

Webster has a number of tattoos on his arms, chest, and left shoulder, as well as noticeable scars on his arms, abdomen, back, and a misshapen nose.

"Webster is wanted for possession with intent to distribute fentanyl," said Jeffrey White, a deputy marshal. "Webster is known to have ties Nashua, NH and the surrounding areas."

The alert on Webster by the task force carried a "violent tendencies" warning and that he was "known to abuse drugs."

Previously, Webster also lived in Amherst. He was arrested in that community on theft and warrants in the past, according to posts on Patch. In 2015, he was indicted on a heroin dealing charge.

If you see Webster, someone who looks like him, or you know where he is, call the U.S. Marshals Service at 603-225-1632 or local police.
