(WTVA) – A man who fled the state has been captured and is facing extradition back to Mississippi. The West Point Police Department announced that the United States Marshals Service caught 33-year-old Brandon Lamond Hamilton on Thursday, Oct. 15. Hamilton was found in Springfield, Missouri. A search had been underway for him on charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, shooting into a dwelling, and domestic violence/aggravated assault. “The West Point Police Department recognizes and commends the outstanding partnership and collaborative efforts of Detectives with the West Point Police Departments Criminal Investigation Division, the Command Staff and the United States Marshals Service (USMS). This cooperative relationship exemplifies the importance of interagency coordination, effective communication, and the timely exchange of information in furthering law enforcement objectives and bringing dangerous wanted fugitives to justice.” Police Chief Michael Edwards in the announcement.     Law enforcement said he was found with a firearm as well as a felony amount of controlled substances, and is facing multiple felony charges stemming from his arrest. Springfield is a city in Missouri’s southwest. There is no word on if his sister, Deundra Hamilton, has also been found.
