TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) - Police in Tempe say a suspect has been arrested in connection with a homicide case last year.
They say 28-year-old Enrique Gerardo Munoz was taken into custody last Sunday on suspicion of second-degree murder.
Police say Munoz allegedly shot 35-year-old Edwin Rozo after the two got into a fight in a Tempe neighborhood last July 29.
Witnesses told police they heard a gunshot, a truck speeding away and a man yelling for help.
When police arrived on the scene, they found Rozo with a gunshot wound to the chest.
Police say surveillance video, interviews and a digital forensics examination of cellphone data led investigators to Munoz as a suspect.
Investigators also say Munoz allegedly tried to sell the gun linked to Rozo’s death just hours after the shooting.
Munoz is jailed on $500,000 bond. His next scheduled court appearance is a preliminary hearing on Feb. 12.
It was unclear Tuesday if Munoz has a lawyer yet for his case.
