Jairus-Paul Covacha Sacramento is back in custody.
His extensive criminal past includes receiving a six-month conditional sentence with house arrest in 2022 after being found guilty of groping a woman on a North Vancouver trail.
Then, in 2024, there was an incident in Burnaby, on Royal Oak Avenue near Deer Lake Parkway, where he was arrested at gunpoint.
Sacramento later pleaded guilty to one count each of dangerous driving and flight from police.
Now he has been arrested on two assault charges, two criminal harassment charges and five counts of breaching conditions.
“We spent several weeks attempting to locate him, investigating his whereabouts and ultimately tracking him down,” Vancouver police Sgt. Steve Addison said.

“When it came time to arrest him, the individual did attempt to flee. We did deploy a canine unit to track him and ultimately make that arrest.”
Sacramento is due to make his next court appearance on June 23. He remains in custody, for now.
