The fugitive husband of the Bronx day care owner charged in the fentanyl-poisoning death of a toddler was hunted down in Mexico, law enforcement sources told The Post Tuesday.
A 38-year-old man was the third arrested in connection to the drug packaging operation that led to the death of a one-year-old boy and the hospitalisation of three other children under the age of three.
The Department of Justice said a third suspect was charged in connection to a New York City daycare facility where a 1-year-old boy died of fentanyl exposure.
The Regional Fugitive Task Force has expanded the search for the husband of embattled Bronx daycare owner Grei Mendez to the couple's native Dominican Republic, federal sources tell The Post.
