XENIA — Chi Quang Du is headed back to Greene County more than a decade after he fled as a fugitive wanted for stabbing his ex-girlfriend and her friend outside a Wright State University library.

Du, now 38, waived an extradition hearing in his new home of Ontario and was deported last week, said Mark Adkins, investigator for the Greene County prosecutor's office.

Du was shuffled from jail to jail in Niagara Falls and was expected to be picked up by Adkins, who traveled to upstate New York Tuesday, Jan. 6.

Du, who was born in Vietnam, could be in a Greene County jail cell today, Jan. 7.

The 11-year fugitive was caught in Mississauga, Ontario, in December when police were tipped after he was featured on the television show "America's Most Wanted." The U.S. Marshals Service also had been searching for Du.

The Wright State business graduate was managing a cellular phone store in the Toronto suburb where he lived for at least three years under a false name with fictitious documents.

Prosecutor Steven K. Haller said police suspected Du was hiding out in the Toronto area. "It wasn't a big surprise that's where he was found," he said.

Du faces two counts of attempted aggravated murder for allegedly attacking his former girlfriend, Thuy T. Mai, and Eric T. Borton, who came to her aid in front of Wright-Dunbar Library in October 1997.

Police said Du slit Mai's throat and stabbed her and Borton in the chest, stomach and back. Both survived. Mai now lives near Cincinnati. Borton relocated out West.
