Hyperballad 4,311 Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 San Antonio police announce arrest in officer's killing (CNN)San Antonio Police announced Monday the arrest of a man suspected of targeting and killing a 50-year-old police officer. Otis Tyrone McKane, 31, was arrested around 4:30 p.m. while riding with a woman and a 2-year-old child in a car on Interstate 10, Chief William McManus said. "This is the person's whose image we saw on surveillance," McManus said at a press conference. "This is also the person we believe is responsible for the cold and calculated murder of Detective Marconi." Detective Benjamin Marconi, a 20-year veteran of the department, was shot to death while writing a traffic ticket outside of police headquarters Sunday. The department released footage of a man seen inside police headquarters four hours before the shooting and video of a car leaving the scene, CNN-affiliate KPRC reported.McManus, who said he believed Marconi was targeted because he was a police officer, told reporters that he doesn't believe McKane has any relationship to the driver pulled over before the shooting, CNN-affiliate KRIS reported. McKane was kept under surveillance for several hours before a SWAT team made the arrest without injuries, McManus said. The woman he was with was driving at the time of the arrest, he said. Police have located the black Mitsubishi Galant seen leaving the shooting scene and are processing it for evidence, McManus said. Texas Rangers, U.S. Marshal deputies and FBI agents assisted in the investigation, the chief said. "The motive for the capital murder is still unknown," McManus told reporters. "This is very much an ongoing investigation." The killing happened a few minutes before noon on Sunday. Officer Marconi pulled over a driver on the south side of the police station. He returned to his patrol car to write a ticket. That's when a man pulled up behind him. The man walked up to the patrol car driver's side window and shot the officer in the head, McManus said. The man then reached through the open window and shot him a second time, McManus said. After the shooting, the man returned to his vehicle and drove away. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.cnn.com/cnn/2016/11/21/us/san-antonio-police-officer-killed/index.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
