A suspected American hit-man, wanted by Interpol, has been arrested in Ibiza. Interpol have been hunting the American, charged with illegal possession of firearms, four semi-automatic rifles and two semi-automatic pistols, and in connection with two paid killings in the United States. According to the police, the 28-year-old, identified only as T.N.H., is from Dallas and was tracked down working in San Antonio under a false name as a night club bouncer. He is now in the hands of the High Court and according to the police, is extremely dangerous. Police sources said yesterday that the 28-year-old fled the United States for Mexico when police issued a warrant for his arrest on illegal arms charges. He managed to escape arrest in Mexico by disarming a police officer and holding him hostage. According to the police, the suspect is an ex-United States marine and has received extremely high combat training. He was however expelled for disciplinary reasons before joining, and being subsequently kicked out of, the French Foreign Legion.
