SPRINGFIELD, Mo. — According to the U.S. Marshals, 39-year-old Bradley Eugene Keith was arrested by the U.S. Marshals Service-Eastern Arkansas Fugitive Task Force near Little Rock on Thursday, Feb. 6.
U.S. Marshals Service investigators tracked Keith to a hotel in Cabot, Ark., where they arrested him in the parking lot. Keith had warrants for his arrest from Cedar and Vernon Counties in Missouri, charging him with multiple crimes, including—burglary, drug, and weapons offenses, as well as state parole violations. Keith was also the suspect of a high speed pursuit through Greene and Christian Counties in January.

“This fugitive was a violent offender, with a lengthy criminal history, who engaged in a one-man crime spree across Southwest Missouri,” said U.S. Marshal Mark James of the Western District of Missouri, “We want to thank all our law enforcement partners who came together to catch this dangerous criminal.”
