Wisconsin's Most Wanted: Nicholas Weldon, sought for dealing drugs

MILWAUKEE - A 33-year-old arrested for his involvement in a violent street gang has gone on the run. U.S. Marshals say the drug dealer hasn’t been seen since last November.

"He’s been a pest to society," the U.S. Marshal on the case said. "He’s distributing drugs in the city and he needs to come back and be taken into custody."

U.S. Marshals say the man they’re looking for lives up to his nickname. Nicholas Weldon is known as "The Tick."

"This is the kind of person that is just kind of draining society," the marshal said.

Investigators say he has a history of breaking the law, but it’s what happened in 2020 that got him in trouble with federal law enforcement. He was arrested with more than 20 others, for his involvement in the street gang known as the "Buffum-Meinecke Boys." Weldon was convicted of dealing cocaine. He spent time in prison and was later put on supervised released. He then found himself in trouble again.

Weldon is believed to still be in Milwaukee. He has several tattoos including a Green Bay Packers "G" on his arm and his nickname "Tha Tick" written across both forearms.
