Share and Follow

A 25-year-old suspected hit man, believed to be connected with a Philadelphia gang, has been apprehended. Authorities report that he was sought in connection with three distinct murders, one involving a 16-year-old victim.

Tyvine Jones was arrested on Wednesday at a Delaware County apartment complex, as announced by the U.S. Marshals Service in Philadelphia.

“Tyvine Jones ranked among Philadelphia’s ‘Most Wanted’ due to his involvement in the murders of three individuals from 2020 to 2022,” stated Eric Gartner, U.S. Marshal for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, in a post-arrest statement.

Jones is allegedly associated with the “Blumberg” gang, serving as a hit man. He is linked to three separate killings that took place in Philadelphia in August 2020, May 2022, and September 2022. The victims, aged 16, 20, and 23, all succumbed to gunshot wounds, according to authorities.

Supervisory Deputy U.S. Marshal Robert Clark previously called Jones “the very worst society has to offer.”

“His disregard for human life poses a continued threat to the public and he should be considered armed and highly dangerous,” Clark said.

The task force acted on an anonymous tip that led them to the Stratford Court Apartments, where Jones was believed to be hiding, the Marshals Service said.

Marshals, along with Pennsylvania Attorney General agents and Philadelphia homicide detectives, surrounded the complex and found Jones at the location.

Jones was taken into custody without incident and taken to the Philadelphia Homicide Detective Division for processing.

“Together with our Philadelphia PD and other partners, our commitment to the citizens of Philadelphia remains steadfast: the relentless pursuit of violent fugitives such as Tyvine Jones, whose unrestrained existence serves only to diminish our great city,” Gartner said.
