The FBI has released a new photo of Ryan Wedding, a Canadian fugitive and former Olympic snowboarder, who is wanted for drug trafficking and murder. The image, believed to be from 2024, shows him with short hair, differing from a 2013 driver's license photo. Wedding, 43, faces eight felony charges in California, including murder linked to a drug trafficking operation. He is accused of orchestrating violent crimes in Ontario and running a $1 billion drug enterprise importing cocaine from Colombia. U.S. authorities are offering a $50,000 reward for information leading to Wedding's arrest. He has been on the run since 2015, with recent reports suggesting he may be hiding in Latin America.
