BILLINGS - Chief Deputy U.S. Marshal Timothy Hornung announced Wednesday evening the capture of 35-year-old Willie Redd.
Hornung said Redd was arrested at the Motel 6 (North) on Midland Road in Billings by members of the Montana Violent Offender Task Force (MVOTF). Redd was arrested inside the hotel after the task force located the room he was occupying.
Redd is in custody at the Yellowstone County Detention Facility on a federal hold.
âThe whole team worked the Redd case hard and put in some long hours. It did not take investigators long to realize that Redd was still in the Billings area. All investigators needed were to be diligent and patient with this case and today it paid off,â Deputy Hornung said. âI could not be prouder of the Billings team of the MVOTF; their dedication to the investigation of Reddâs whereabouts and their ability to safely apprehend him today.â
