US Marshals task force in Las Vegas arrests fugitive wanted in Missouri

A fugitive wanted in Missouri by the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department was arrested Tuesday afternoon by the U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force in Las Vegas.

A warrant was issued charging Christopher McMillan, 21, with homicide, the local U.S. Marshals office said. The charges stem from an altercation in which a man was shot dead.

U.S. Marshals developed information that McMillan fled to Las Vegas; he was arrested near Simmons Street and West Centennial Parkway. He was booked into the Clark County Detention Center pending his extradition to Missouri.
