The Brevard County Sheriff’s Office has named Tony Marcel Hammond Jr. as its latest 'Fugitive of the Week' in a recurring campaign to highlight wanted individuals. Hammond, 37, is wanted for violating drug offender probation related to the sale, manufacture, or delivery of cocaine. The warrant stems from an alleged breach of probation conditions tied to a narcotics case, according to the Sheriff’s Office. He was last seen in the Titusville area and has no bond.
The 'Wheel of Fugitive' initiative, led by Sheriff Wayne Ivey, uses social media to spotlight fugitives and urge the public to help locate them. The campaign has drawn attention for its direct appeals to suspects and its format, which often includes photos and details about each individual. Authorities say Hammond’s probation violation is connected to a prior narcotics case, though specific charges from that case were not disclosed in the latest update.
The Sheriff’s Office is asking residents to contact Crimeline at 1-800-423-TIPS (8477) with any information about Hammond’s location. Tips can also be submitted online through the agency’s website. Sheriff Ivey has emphasized the importance of community involvement in locating fugitives, particularly those with outstanding warrants for serious offenses.
Hammond is one of several individuals highlighted in the 'Wheel of Fugitive' series, which the Sheriff’s Office says has led to multiple arrests since its launch. The campaign typically posts updates weekly, focusing on different fugitives and their alleged crimes. No details were provided about Hammond’s current employment or known associates, but authorities say he is considered a high priority due to the nature of his probation violation.
