Authorities have confirmed that an international criminal, sought for numerous bank heists, has been extradited from Ukraine after nearly three years of evasion.

Edward Deveaux of Berlin Township, New Jersey, was returned to the U.S. on Friday, wrote the Camden County Prosecutor’s Office in a press release.

Charged with two counts of second-degree robbery, the suspect allegedly committed these crimes in Waterford and Winslow located in Camden County on September 30, 2022, just two days subsequent to his last reported robbery.

A third charge, for the Willingboro robbery in nearby Burlington County, was filed three days later.

In the course of their investigation, officials discovered that Deveaux had traveled across several European nations before eventually taking refuge in Ukraine following the final robbery in Winslow.

Additional information led them to Lviv, where the suspect was ultimately tracked down.

Deveaux’s arrest and extradition is a “testament to what we can accomplish when law enforcement at all levels works together,” Camden County Prosecutor Grace MacAulay said. (Camden County Prosecutor’s Office)

“It makes no difference where fugitives run, justice has a long reach,” Juan Mattos Jr., U.S. Marshal for the District of New Jersey, said in the release. 

“This arrest is the result of relentless teamwork from our state, county, local, and international partners,” he continued. “The U.S. Marshals Service remains committed to ensuring that those who commit violent crimes are held accountable, no matter the borders they cross.”

A detention hearing was scheduled for 9 a.m. Wednesday, during which the judge ordered Deveaux to remain detained, the prosecutor’s office told Fox News Digital.
