Summary:
Elijah Hylton is wanted for the homicide of 25-year-old Ty Jenkins.
Vital Statistics
Circumstances of Offense:
Authorities allege that Elijah shot Ty to death in the parking garage of the Emerald Queen Casino. The suspected motive was revenge, based on the fact that Elijah and Ty’s gangs had been involved in an ongoing feud. Elijah’s brother has since pleaded guilty to being the getaway driver and received a sentence of three years. The US Marshals Service are searching for Elijah who has a warrant for First Degree Murder. As of this posting (06/21/2025), Pierce County’s court records database shows no filings since the warrant was issued for Elijah’s arrest, confirming he is still at large.
Additional Details:
Anyone with information on Elijah’s whereabouts should contact the US Marshals Service at 1-877-Wanted-2 (1-877-926-8332) or Crime Stoppers of Tacoma/Pierce County (To be eligible for a potential reward) at 1-800-222-TIPS. Elijah should be considered very dangerous. Please consider sharing this so that Ty’s family can get justice and answers in their loved one’s case. The fact that Ty had gang ties is not an excuse for him being murdered.
