US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents in Washington State arrested a Canadian man on October 9 who is wanted for murder and illegally entered the United States. He had come a long way from the province of Quebec, where Nickolace Denis-Fouche is one of the chief suspects in a murder case, the CBP reported in a news release.

Sumas Station agents responded to a tip from a private citizen who sighted Denis-Fouche acting suspiciously as he looked for a ride. The CBP agents investigated and apprehended the fugitive after he attempted to escape and placed him in custody.

The CBP returned Denis-Fouche to Canada the next day where police confirmed an extraditable warrant for his arrest. He was turned over to Canadian authorities that morning through the Sumas Port of Entry. Canadian authorities identified Denis-Fouche as an individual who has an extraditable warrant for murder in Terrebonne, Quebec, Canada.

“I am proud of the swift and decisive actions by our agents in apprehending this dangerous individual,” said Blaine Sector Chief Patrol Agent Rosario Vasquez. “Our close collaboration with Canadian authorities was instrumental in ensuring that this fugitive will face justice.”

Although the Blaine border crossing is not as well known as an easy point of entry between the US and Canada as sites in Quebec and Ontario, it is highly accessible. Illegal border crossings from Canada into Washington state are reaching record highs, not just because the border is easy to cross but because it is understaffed by CBP agents.

The Peace Arch Park is a neutral causeway between British Columbia and Washington state that is inviting for potential illegals. Without fences or checkpoints, the CBP relies on surveillance cameras on top of poles to conduct surveillance – cameras that an internal CBP memo revealed are subject to failure, with over 30 percent of them at the southern border unserviceable.

Denis-Fouche is only one of the men that Quebec Provincial Police were seeking in connection to a murder in the Quebec city of Terrebonne. Emmanuel Mbong Bougha, 24, is the other suspect. Both men are prime suspects in the July 18 murder of 22-year-old Maxime Jean, City News reported.

The murder remains shrouded in some mystery. According to Terrebonne police, Jean was found barely alive on a park bench in July. He was taken to the hospital in critical condition but died five days later on July 23.
