The FBI is offering a reward of up to $10,000 for information that leads the arrest of an alleged leader of the Young Bloods, a "violent street gang" that operates around Lynn, officials said.

Steven C. Touch, that alleged leader, has failed to appear for court dates and is facing charges of murder and home invasion, the FBI said in a statement on Monday. The agency is now offering a reward of up to $10,000 for information leading to his arrest.

On Thursday, Touch was indicted by a grand jury in Middlesex County for his alleged involvement in a 2012 home invasion in Billerica that resulted in the murder of the victim, the FBI said in a statement. He is facing charges of first-degree murder, home invasion, attempt to commit armed robbery, and two counts of conspiracy.

An arrest warrant for Touch was issued in Middlesex Superior Court on Jan. 10 after he failed to appear in court on charges of possession of a large capacity firearm, possession of firearm without a license, possession of a large capacity feeding device, carrying a loaded firearm, and defacing a serial number on a firearm.

On May 22, an arrest warrant for Touch was issued out of U.S. District Court in Boston for unlawful flight to avoid prosecution.

Touch, 28, is a U.S. citizen, the FBI said. He is Cambodian, 5 feet 7 inches tall and weighs about 220 pounds. He last resided at 108 Empire Street in Lynn. He has black hair, brown eyes and a goatee.

Touch is considered armed and dangerous and members of the public should not approach him, Harold H. Shaw, the special agent in charge of the FBI Boston Division, said in a statement.

The FBI said Touch also has several tattoos: The word "Blood" on his right upper arm, the word "Mayhem" on the right side of his neck, a baby footprint also on the right side of his neck, the letter "Y" with the word "Young" underneath his right inner forearm, the letter "B" with with the word "Blood" underneath, on his left forearm, and the word "Touch" on his left hand.

Touch is also known as "Kevin Touch," "Fat Boy" and "C Sick," the FBI said.
