Family Members To U.S. Marshals: Fugitive Is In Bay State Jail

CONCORD, NH — Wednesday's New Hampshire Fugitive of the Week has been located after family of the fugitive saw the task force alert and informed U.S. Marshals that the suspect was in jail in Massachusetts.

Donald Scott Fraize Jr., 32, was wanted on outstanding warrants out of Rockingham County Superior Court for failure to appear on drug and assault charges as well as a Manchester police warrant on a robbery charge from February.

Not long after the weekly feature was published by media outlets, the task force received "multiple phone calls from family members" informing investigators that Fraize was in the Essex County Jail in Massachusetts, according to Jeffrey White, a deputy marshal.

"The NH Joint Fugitive Task Force was able to confirm that Fraize was in fact in custody," he said. "This information was relayed to the Rockingham County Sheriff’s Office and they have filed paperwork with the Essex County Jail requesting that Mr. Fraize be sent back to NH upon the completion of his criminal matters in Massachusetts."

According to court documents and reports online, Fraize has been arrested and convicted numerous times related to numerous crimes dating back to when he was a teenager.
