A Montreal man wanted in connection with a criminal organization allegedly run by former Canadian Olympian Ryan Wedding has been arrested in the United States.
The FBI says 35-year-old Tommy Demorizi was arrested on Tuesday at Newark International Airport in New Jersey.
It says he was wanted for multiple offences, including allegedly helping locate a witness who was later killed.
Demorizi faces charges including conspiracy to distribute and export cocaine, conspiracy to commit murder and conspiracy to tamper with a witness.
Several other Canadians have been arrested as part of the investigation into Wedding, including a lawyer who allegedly advised the killing of a federal witness and a jeweller accused of being the “de facto bank” for the criminal enterprise.
Wedding himself was arrested in Mexico in January after a years-long manhunt, with FBI director Kash Patel calling him “the largest narco trafficker in modern times.”
