Bail-jumping fugitive arrested in Atlantic City

  • News
An Atlantic City man recently indicted for bail jumping has been arrested. Taquay Dunston, 20, was taken into custody Friday afternoon by members of the FBI Task Force with assistance from Atlantic County Prosecutor's Office detectives, county Prosecutor Damon Tyner said. Dunston was indicted earlier this month for bail jumping after he failed to show up to his sentencing April 13, for his part in a gang-related shooting inside a Taj Mahal hote
l room March 24, 2016. Dunston had been arrested under the old bail rules, and was able to make bail after pleading guilty in February. About 20 teenagers attended a party on the 47th floor of the Taj Mahal hotel, which led to a shootout between two rival Atlantic City gangs, Tyner said. One was the Head Shot Gang, centered in Back Maryland, and Fetti-G, which is based in Stanley Holmes Village. https://breakingac.com/2018/06/man-indicted-missed-sentencing/
