The Montreal police (SPVM) and federal Bolo program are upping the award money for one of Canada's most wanted fugitives. Up to $50,000 is being offered to anyone with information on the location of 28-year-old Dylan Denis.

(Cosmo Santamaria/CTV News) The SPVM's major crimes unit arrested two suspects in relation to the case, and Denis is still at large. He is listed as one of Canada's 25 most wanted fugitives. The $50,000 reward replaces the $10,000 award that was initially offered by Sun Youth. 'We are grateful for this initiative by the Bolo Program to help the SPVM find Dylan Denis, who has been wanted for just over a year,' said major crimes section chief Mélanie Dupont. 'We are convinced that there are citizens who have information that would be very useful to our criminal investigation aimed at arresting him.' Denis speaks French, is 5′6″ (1.7 metres) and weighs around 170 pounds (77 kilograms). He has multiple tattoos, including one on his neck that says: 'CRIME PAY$.' 'Dylan Denis has been on the run for over a year now, and this must stop,' said Bolo Program executive director Maxime Langlois. 'Today, the Bolo Program, in collaboration with its partners, is deploying several measures, including a reward and an advertising campaign, to encourage citizens to be on the lookout for Denis.' Anyone with information on Denis is asked to call 911 or visit a local police station.

One of Canada's most wanted, convicted of gun trafficking, arrested in the U.S.
TORONTO – Toronto police say a man convicted of firearms trafficking was arrested in the United States after almost four years on the run. They say 43-year-old Kamar Cunningham was arrested by the U.S. Marshals Service in the Atlanta region and is being held pending extradition. Police say Cunningham was arrested in June 2018 as part of an investigation into a criminal organization that trafficked firearms across the United States border. They say he was convicted of several firearms trafficking charges in November 2020, but was released on bail and did not appear for his court date while awaiting sentencing. The Bolo program, which encourages people to be on the lookout for Canada's most wanted, says Cunningham was re-arrested and released on bail several times in the period between the start of his trial and as he awaited sentencing.
