Suspect in a 1987 Attempted Murder Extradited from L.A.

Upper Marlboro, MD…The Warrant &Fugitive Division arrested Mark McNabb yesterday on an Assault with the Intent to Murder warrant obtained by County Police detectives on March 9, 1988.

According to the warrant, on November 11, 1987, while armed with a handgun McNabb forced his way into an apartment on Cindy Lane in Seat Pleasant looking for a visitor of the residence.  McNabb and the visitor of the apartment exchanged gunfire, wounding McNabb prior to his fleeing the residence.

                                        

In early September Deputies received information that McNabb was possibly being detained in a Los Angeles, California County Jail on a traffic violation.  He was identified by L.A. law enforcement through the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) database. Initially, McNabb fought extradition claiming that he was not the person named in the 1988 warrant. 

McNabb ultimately admitted that he was the person wanted in the warrant when he was positively identified through scar from the gunshot wound and photos.  On October 14^th, two Deputies from the Warrant & Fugitive Division extradited McNabb from California to the Prince George’s County Department of Corrections where he is being held on a “No Bond” status. The warrant is closed.
