Valentine's Day Murder Suspect Caught In Dallas

DALLAS (AP) - Dallas police have arrested a 27-year-old man suspected of being involved in a Valentine's Day murder in San Antonio.

Dallas police arrested Ronnell Williams on Saturday. San Antonio police had named Williams and 19-year-old DeVante Jackson as suspects in the shooting death of Anthony Melvin.

The Dallas Morning News reports the three men had a fight on Valentine's Day, and the 27-year-old Melvin was shot in the leg. He later died. The suspects fled in a white Dodge Charger.

Jackson was arrested sometime after, but Williams remained a fugitive.

Police found Williams on Saturday and arrested him after a brief foot chase. He will be transferred to Bexar County.
