A West Mifflin man wanted on firearms and assault charges was arrested Thursday, according to the Allegheny County Sheriff’s Office.
Malik Banks, 25, was deemed a fugitive in April 2022 after he failed to appear in court on a firearms charge, Sheriff Kevin M. Kraus said. Pittsburgh police also charged Banks in 2022 with aggravated assault, after authorities said a woman reported that Banks struck her under her eye with a gun he was holding.
Sheriff’s office detectives arrested Banks at a home on West Mifflin’s Midway Drive, Kraus said.
Kraus said Banks was being held in Allegheny County Jail.
