NH Fugitive Caught in RI

U.S. Marshals in New Hampshire have been looking for Christopher Rabbia since January and finally, they have him.

Rabbia was arrested on May 19, 2015, in Providence, RI, after police in that city were investigating a report of someone trying to exchange stolen merchandise at the Providence Mall. He was later located and arrested and allegedly provided “one of his many aliases of Christopher Mirabella to officers,” according to Deputy Marshal Jeffrey White.

Rabbia was wanted on a federal arrest warrant out of U.S. District Court in Concord for violations of supervised release on an original conviction of aggravated identity theft. He had been on the run since January. Rabbia is also allegedly suspected of numerous car thefts from dealerships around New England, according to White.

Rabbia is being held in Rhode Island on a receiving stolen property charge. He will be turned over to marshals after his local charge is dealt with.
