TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Authorities say a person of interest in a northeast Kansas homicide has been arrested in Connecticut.

Shawnee County sheriff’s Sgt. Todd Stallbaumer says the 26-year-old man is in the custody of the New Britain Police Department in Connecticut.

The Topeka Capital-Journal reports that he was identified as a person of interest shortly after Dustin C. McKinney’s death earlier this month at a home just north of Topeka. Another suspect also is jailed in the killing.
