Mustang fatal shooting suspect arrested after overnight manhunt

A deadly Mustang fatal shooting investigation is underway after police say a domestic dispute turned violent late Wednesday night, leaving one man dead and triggering a metro-area manhunt.

Officers responded to a home near State Highway 152 and South Sara Road around 11 p.m. after reports of a shooting inside the residence.

When officers arrived, they found an adult male suffering from a gunshot wound.

Despite emergency life-saving efforts, the victim was pronounced dead at the scene.

Investigators say the Mustang fatal shooting appears to have stemmed from an argument involving family members inside the home.

According to Mustang Police Chief Mike Wallace, the incident is believed to be domestic in nature and involved multiple people who were inside the residence at the time of the shooting.

Police say witness statements helped investigators quickly identify the suspect and the vehicle involved.

The criminal investigation is being led by the Mustang Police Department.

The suspect’s identity has not yet been officially released.
