FUGITIVES ARRESTED IN SEARCH FOR MISSING GIRL

(Cleveland, OH) About two weeks ago, 11-year-old Shakira Johnson disappeared from a party at Benham Avenue and East 106th Street. Yesterday, about 40 FBI agents, sheriff's deputies and local police scoured the neighborhood for evidence of the missing girl and to execute arrest warrants for 296 sexual offenders living in the area. Nine fugitives were taken into custody and more arrests are expected. Examination of evidence gathered is ongoing.

It is disturbing that there are 296 fugitive sexual offenders known to live in the area. One has to wonder. Just how many of these convicted sex offenders are there roaming around in society?
