An 18-year-old man wanted in connection with a murder investigation in Texas was arrested Saturday about 30 miles west of Lincoln, the Nebraska State Patrol said in a news release.
Troopers arrested Luigin Alberto Perez-Millian, of Denver, without incident in a traffic stop on Interstate 80 near Goehner, which is in Seward County.
In a news release, the U.S. Marshals Service said its Metro Fugitive Task Force received credible information that Perez-Millian was traveling through Nebraska on I-80 and coordinated efforts with the State Patrol in locating and apprehending him.

According to a related Arlington Police Department press release, the investigation involves an early morning shooting outside a night club Nov. 17 that killed a 23-year-old man.
