Cops seek Fredericton man on several files
Timothy Robert Dunphy, 50, 'arrestable' in multiple investigations, says police force
The Fredericton Police Force is looking to place a Fredericton man under arrest in connection with several investigations, but it's turning to the public for help in tracking him down.
The city police force issued an advisory through social media Tuesday evening indicating officers are looking for Timothy Robert Dunphy, 50, of Fredericton, describing him as being "arrestable on several police files."
Dunphy is described as being 5’10' tall, with grey hair, brown eyes and a medium build.
He made headlines three years ago after the fatal shooting of Justin Leigh Finnemore in the capital region on May 2, 2020.
Dunphy and Kevin Mark Sexton, 39, were charged with second-degree murder in Finnemore's death, but Dunphy was sentenced to a short stint in prison after admitting to a lesser charge of being an accessory to the murder after the fact by helping Sexton avoid police.
Sexton later pleaded guilty to manslaughter and was also sentenced to prison time.
Anyone with information on Dunphy's whereabouts or that could help police to find him is urged to contact Fredericton police Const. Steve Burgess by emailing steve.burgess@fredericton.ca or by calling 506-460-2300.
Tipsters wishing to remain anonymous can contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
