CHICAGO FUGITIVE SOUGHT
Robert D. Grant, Special Agent-in-Charge of the Chicago Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is asking for the public's help in locating TOMMIE GENTRY, Jr., also known as "Spuck", whose last known address was 9646 South University Avenue in Chicago.
GENTRY has been the subject of a nationwide manhunt,
coordinated by the Chicago FBI, since June of 2007 after being charged
in a criminal complaint filed in U.S.
District Court in Chicago with violation of federal firearms laws. GENTRY
is also a suspect in the August 2005 armed take-over robbery of the Chase
Bank branch, located at 6040 West 159th Street in Oak Forest, Illinois.
GENTRY is described as a black/male, 41 years of age, 5' 8" tall, medium build, with black hair and brown eyes. He was last known to have facial hair but might haven shaven to change his appearance. GENTRY has a lengthy criminal record and as such, should be considered armed and dangerous.
Anyone recognizing GENTRY or having any information about his current whereabouts is asked to call the Chicago FBI at (312) 421-6700.
The public is reminded that a complaint is not evidence of guilt and that all defendants in a criminal case are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
EDITOR's NOTE: Additional copies
of wanted flyer and the criminal complaint filed in this case are available
from the Chicago FBI Press Office at (312) 829-1199.
