The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation today added Chattanooga man Jereme Little to its list of top ten most wanted fugitives in the state.

Little was convicted of kidnapping in 2008 and served seven years of an 18-year sentence before his conviction was overturned by then-judge Rebecca Stern. Little was released from prison in May 2015.

But last week, an appellate court reversed Stern's decision and reinstated Little's conviction. He was ordered back to prison. But he has not been arrested.

Now, Little is a fugitive and considered armed and dangerous, according to TBI. He is a member of the Vice Lords gang, stands 6 feet, one inch tall, and weighs about 278 pounds, according to TBI.

There is a $1,000 reward for information that leads to his arrest. Tipsters can call 1-800-TBI-FIND with any information about Little's location.

Little was convicted of kidnapping and torturing another man, tying the man up and forcing him to eat cocaine and dog feces.
