Fugitive of the Week: Bail Jumper Armed and Dangerous

CONCORD, N.H. - After rounding up previous Fugitive of the Week in Italy, the New Hampshire Joint Fugitive Task Force is looking for a repeat offender who is considered armed and dangerous.

Brandon Robert Janak, 32, of Laconia, NH is wanted on an outstanding Belknap County Superior Court warrant for Felon in Possession of a Dangerous Weapon.

Janak is 6 foot, 175 lbs. with blue eyes and brown hair. He has tattoos on his arms, chest, and left leg.

Janak was arrested during a traffic stop in Gilford on March 10, according to Gilford Police logs.

This isn't the first time Janak has become a fugitive from the law. In 2012, U.S. Marshals arrested Janak, 19 at the time, and his father Edward Janak at an apartment in Brewer, Maine.

They were sought for bail jumping, the elder Janak for charges relating to a 2007 assault and the younger Janak for a drug charge.

Brandon Janak is believed to be in the Lakes Region area but also has ties in Northern Maine, according to the Task Force.

If you know of the whereabouts of JANAK, or have observed a person that resembles him, please
