Micky Mayon of Steelton was being held at a jail in Dauphin County, Pa., in lieu of $2 million bail after his arraignment on charges of flight to avoid apprehension, illegal possession of firearms and failure to appear in court, Steelton police said. Mayon, who is in his early 30s, was apprehended in a Tel Aviv rooming house last week by Israeli immigration officials who said they planned to deport him. Agents of the U.S. Marshals Service accompanied Mayon on the flight from Israel, and Steelton police took him into custody when he arrived Monday at Philadelphia International Airport, police said.

Mayon's lawyer, Robert Daniels of Harrisburg, declined to comment Monday. Read More. |
