JERSEY CITY -- One of New Jersey's "Most Wanted Fugitives" was transferred to a South Jersey jail today to await arraignment on charges in Gloucester County after being arrested Wednesday in Jersey City, officials said.

David Burroughs, 32, of Jersey City, was wanted for failure to appear in a Gloucester County court on charges related to a March 2003 incident that include kidnapping, aggravated assault and endangering an injured victim, according to Gloucester County Prosecutor's office spokesman Bernie Weisenfeld.

Burroughs was briefly housed at the Hudson County jail following his arrest Wednesday afternoon before being moved to Salem County Correctional Facility, since Gloucester County closed its jail in 2013.

He was arrested without incident at his Danforth Avenue home, just east of Old Bergen Road, by troopers from the State Police Fugitive Unit working with the U.S. Marshal's Service Regional Fugitive Task Force's Newark and Camden divisions, the Gloucester County Prosecutor's Office and the Jersey City Police Department, according to a news release.

Burroughs, who was living in South Carolina at the time of the incident, was arrested on the charges in 2003, posted bail, but failed to appear for arraignment after being indicted. He was captured again in 2007, posted a $25,000 cash only bail, but again failed to appear for arraignment. He will likely be arraigned in the next few weeks, Weisenfeld said this afternoon.

Burroughs had two defendants facing the same charges and they received only probation, Weisenfeld added.

Burroughs allegedly committed "aggravated assault by causing serious bodily injury to (male victim's name omitted) specifically by punching him in the face with a closed fist numerous times causing several serious injuries to his face," the complaint states.

He endangered an injured victim by assaulting the man and leaving him on a dirt road while knowingly or reasonably believing the injured person was physically helpless and unable to care for himself, according to the complaint.

He is additionally charged with kidnapping after allegedly confining the victim for a substantial time for the purpose of injuring or terrorizing him, "specifically by pulling the victim into a vehicle while assaulting him and continuing to assault him in the vehicle and keeping him in said vehicle against his will," the complaint says.

Burroughs is being held without bail, Weisenfeld said.
