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 (http://bit.ly/XAPTjy) 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.

so he will get a public defender, they will go to the judge, the judge will sentence him to 30 days time serve jail time fine him 100 dollars and placed on probation for 2 months. He will then join the retired Astronaut and speak in favor of controlling guns by passing laws against the law abiding citizens. Criminals do not need additional laws restricting them from having a gun since by law they should not own one. Most criminals don't own guns, they have them but don't own them.
