EPT Prague Winner Jordan Saccucci Hunted by Canadian Police

The Halton Regional Police Service (HRPS) this week named 33-year-old Saccucci as one of a gang of four men believed to be behind more than 30 residential break-and enter crimes.

Police revealed that search warrants executed on November 21st discovered “numerous items believed to have been stolen from various break and enters” but the four men were not found.

The four men wanted in connection with the burglaries were named, Saccucci among them:

  • Jordan Saccucci (33) of Mississauga
  • Marcel Blackburn (37) of Hagersville
  • Paul Nkrumah (36)
  • Dumark Lindsay (41) of Mississauga

Police believe that, despite knowing they are being hunted, Saccucci and his accomplices have continued their crime spree, with further break-ins in the days following the raids.

The gang’s Modus Operandi

The M.O. of the gang was described by police:

“The suspects may approach the front door of residences during daytime hours with their identities concealed using surgical masks or face coverings, and wear hoods and gloves.

“If confronted by homeowners, the suspects may provide an unconvincing excuse pertaining to some sort of construction or landscaping service before quickly departing.

Police also released an image of the last-known vehicle the gang are known to have been using, a newer model black Chevrolet Tahoe RST

Members of the public have been warned not to approach the suspects.

Jordan Saccucci’s Poker Success

Jordan Saccucci has an impressive string of cashes dating back to February 2016 where he pocketed C$97,733 (US$71,395) for a 4th place finish at the WPT Fallsview Poker Classic at Niagara Falls.

Numerous other cashes, including 10 five-figure paydays, were followed last year by a massive win at EPT Prague, which saw Saccucci defeat Antoine Saout heads-up to win the Main Event and €913,250 ($962,126).

Jordan Saccucci continued to play in Europe this year, including small cashes at the Monte Carlo and Barcelona EPT stops, though his most recent cash saw him back in Canada for the WPT Global October Millions at Kahnawake.

One of Saccucci’s fellow suspects, 37-year-old Marcel Blackburn, also appears on the Hendon Mob database, a solitary small cash at the 2015 Playground Winter Festival, also at Kahnawake.
