Marshals catch up with fugitive in Rochester

Adam Jenna

ROCHESTER - "Fugitive of the Week," Adam Jenna, 35, was arrested shortly before noon by members of the U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force in Rochester. Jenna was scheduled to be this week's "Fugitive of the Week."

Jenna was wanted on two outstanding arrest warrants. The first was issued by the Belknap County Superior Court for failure to appear on original charge of theft of a firearm. The second warrant was issued by the Rockingham County Superior Court for probation violations on an original heroin offense. The U.S. Marshals had been requested to feature Jenna as the "Fugitive of the Week," due to the serious nature of his prior offenses. Shortly after this week's fugitive poster was sent to the media, information was developed as to a possible location for Jenna.

Members of the fugitive task force, including members from the Strafford, Rockingham, Belknap & Hillsborough County Sheriff's Offices, the Rochester Police Department and deputy U.S. Marshals converged on a large apartment complex on Farmington Road in Rochester. As officers were approaching the apartment that Jenna was reportedly staying in, Jenna emerged and was taken into custody without incident. Jenna was transported by the Rochester Police Department to the Strafford County Jail for processing and holding on his outstanding arrest warrants.

Jenna, whose last known home addresses were in Franklin and Tilton, was staying with acquaintances at the time of his capture today in Rochester.
