The FBI on Thursday added a Canadian national and former Olympian to its Top 10 Most Wanted list, accusing him of operating "a transnational drug trafficking network."

The fugitive, 43-year-old Ryan Wedding, competed in a snowboarding event for Canada during the 2002 winter Olympics.

Akil Davis, the assistant director in charge at Federal Bureau of Investigation in Los Angeles, said in a press conference that Wedding's alleged trafficking ring frequently shipped hundreds of kilograms of cocaine from Colombia through Mexico and to the U.S. and Canada, according to Fox News.

State Department is offering a reward of up to $10 million for the capture of Wedding, who is also being accused of murder.

"Wedding went from shredding powder on the slopes at the Olympics to distributing powder cocaine on the streets of U.S. cities and in his native Canada," Davis said in a statement. 

"The alleged murders of his competitors make Wedding a very dangerous man, and his addition to the list of Ten Most Wanted Fugitives, coupled with a major reward offer by the State Department, will make the public our partner so that we can catch up with him before he puts anyone else in danger."

The FBI first issued an arrest warrant for Wedding last year. He was previously convicted of conspiracy to distribute cocaine and sentenced to prison in the U.S. in 2010.

The FBI is also offering an additional $50,000 for information leading to his arrest.
