STATESVILLE, NC — Police say a suspect wanted for homicide and two counts of attempted murder in Florida was arrested Friday afternoon.
Statesville PD got a tip Friday morning from the St. Petersburg Police Department in Florida saying 19-year-old Marcus Frazier was believed to be staying with a relative at Myrtle Place Apartments on Jonathan Lane. Investigators in Statesville confirmed Frazier’s location and obtained a search warrant for the apartment.
Around 12:30pm, the Statesville Special Response Team went to the complex and arrested Frazier without incident, according to a report.
Frazier was taken to court and served a fugitive warrant, and is now being held on a $5 million bond until he can be extradited back to Florida.
