The Oklahoma agents were acting on information discovered and supplied by Mercer County sheriff's detectives, sheriff's spokesman Ernest Cerino said.
Williams was placed on Mercer's Most Wanted in June 2014.
He failed to appear for a pre-arraignment court hearing in Mercer County on June 7, 2013 for an aggravated assault charge. He is accused of causing bodily injury to a victim with a cutting instrument during a March 2013 fight, officials have said.
His last known address had been on Jarvis Place in Trenton's West Ward.
Williams was in the Tulsa County Jail Tuesday, awaiting extradition hearings seeking to return him to New Jersey, Cerino said.
Mercer County Sheriff Jack Kemler said Tuesday that Williams' arrest shows most wanted lists work. "This was a great example of coordinated efforts among law enforcement agencies," he said.
