Double hit and run suspect Markquise Deshawn Wallace of Pensacola has been arrested. He was taken into custody Tuesday afternoon without incident in Philadelphia, PA, by U.S. Marshals.
Wallace, 26, had been staying with a relative for about a month as of the time of his capture. Officials will begin extradition proceedings as soon as possible to have Wallace returned to Pensacola.
Three people were crossing Cervantes Street near M Street when they were hit by a Dodge Charger driven at a high rate of speed by Wallace, according to Pensacola Police. Neariaah Ikerria Williams, age 8 months, and a family friend, 28-year-old Nephateria Monique Williams, died. The child’s mother, 27-year-old Quineka Tyon Baldwin, was injured.

his family knew
To answer some of y’all question about why or are the people are going to be charge for hidden him …. people who lives up north rarely gets the news from Pensacola mobile even if it goes nation wide they be to busy trying to see what’s going on around them trust me I’m from Chicago.. also it’s so easy for your relative to call you and tell you some bum story of they’re tiered of the south and want to try something different story ..but I’m glad the got him and hope he never gets out
William,
See where this guy has a Bond in Pennsylvania of $500,000 as a Fugitive from Justice.
Does this mean if he can come up with the Bond there that he can walk – run – free?
Like I said in the initial report. Its only a matter of time…
Glad he got caught. You cannot run and hide in this day and age.
@ David & John – Let’s Have His Trial In UTAH There The Only State With Firing SQUAD **************
@john. We will not be able to prevent this from happening again. Our criminal justice system and court system has been modified to accommodate these types of situations. If this person could be put on his knees and executed it would go along way as a deterrent but you know as well as I do that will not happen. Until then we will continue to give these thugs and their accomplices chances and second chances and third chances to try and live With normal human beings.
the family of this girl and the baby should be givin the option to beat this fool everyday until he is dead . when they find you out in prison it aint gonna be pretty for you !!!!!!
In my opinion – accessory after the fact charges should be added to anyone helping him avoid justice.
No plea deals …Please…Give him his due punishment when convicted….The harsher the better….
Bring charges against the relatives for aiding and abetting.
This was a terrible thing to happen but why are you assuming that the family all knew is just wrong.How would you feel if it was assumed that the crimes your family committed was condoned and supported you ?
Velma, do you really believe what you wrote? His family didn’t know he was a fugitive? The only question is whether evidence exists to prove it in court. This guy has a very long criminal drug trafficking history. This will get him off the street for a long time.
Just a question…what do we do as a community to stop this from happening again?
Shirt says “your hustle determines your salary”
If found guilty may the death of 2 people earn him all he has worked for.
Looks as if someone took his ice cream…his parents should be proud on how they raised him
He will get a plea deal to plead guilty to involuntary manslaughter, all other charges will be dropped and he will do less than 10 years in prison and come back a better criminal.
I’ll donate the money to fly him back to keep him from escaping on the interstate, . His relatives may try to follow. I’ll feel relieved when he is in prison here in FL chained to some steel bars.
It was just a matter of time. Good detective work! Just shows how dumb crooks are today. They can run but they can’t hide forever! His momma will cry that he was a good person and pled for leniency for a short sentence. Life sentence is too light for him.
Pray for all families involved just because he made a mistake doesn’t mean his family aren’t decent hard working folks just like yourselves. How do you know his relative knew that he was in trouble? There are always 3 sides to each story….I hope this brings some peace & closure to the families.
FINALLY this punk is where he belongs.
“Community” some of you HAD to know where he has been all along.
WHY didn’t you come forward to help the hearts and souls of the victim’s family have some peace and rest?
Anyone sheltering this guy should be brought up on charges.
So are the people that was letting him stay with them going to to be charged? Seems fair you know they knew what he did and were helping him hide out.
The shirt “your hustle determines your salary”. Yeah boy, that really says a lot about yourself.
Where’s that smile now, Markquise???
Too late to mug a remorseful look for the camera now. You and the scum that helped you rot in prison for the rest of your lives…
Not ratting on someone seems to be a cultural thing, OK bad enough. But helping a child killer hide is as low as it gets Those people should have the same sentence imposed upon them as this clown. Maybe we can deter it from happening again. Wishful thinking.
SHAME ON HIS RELATIVES, KARMA…. GOD
yeah 10-1 say’s his mother knew where he was and probably rented him another vehicle to get there
Thank goodness !! Great police work !! May you forever rot…
So very thankful this person has been caught. I am praying for Williams family and friends. My heart aches for them.
Glad they caught the chicken and murderer. Big man around town until it came time to pay for what he did and who he killed. How about arresting the relative he was staying with? I guarantee they knew what was going on. That kind of person will never learn because they are soulless. Life in prison is too good for him.
How is it when suspected criminals are caught they are usually wearing a shirt that seems to fit the situation? Plus I am glad he was found to be questioned by our criminal investigators.
Let’s not slap him on the wrist and turn him right back out this time!
