Fugitive Scott Binsack was apprehended by U.S. marshals Tuesday night.

Mr. Binsack was arrested near Bath, N.Y., said James Cunfer, Chief Deputy U.S. Marshal for the Middle District of Pennsylvania. Bath is about 100 miles west of Binghamton, N.Y. Mr. Binsack was wanted for a parole violation by the Pennsylvania Board of Probation and Parole and had been on the run from authorities since late October, even taunting them on YouTube.

The former homebuilder from Clarks Summit got in trouble with the law again when the state Securities Commission became aware he pitched a plan to revamp the area with a $13.4 million stock offering at a Shamokin City Council meeting. Mr. Binsack is prohibited from engaging in most financial and business transactions, according to the terms of his release.

Mr. Binsack was accused of making shady dealings and accumulating unpaid bills as a homebuilder. He pleaded no contest in July 2010 to seven bad check charges stemming from his work in Lackawanna County as head of Mansions & Estates LLC. He was sentenced to time served and granted parole in April 2011.
