Marshals Task Force Captures Murder Suspect in Pensacola Motel, 3 Others Charged with Drugs |
PENSACOLA, FL - The U.S.
Marshals Florida Regional Fugitive Task Force and the Escambia County
Sheriff’s Office worked together to capture a suspect who may be
responsible for the death of a Pensacola man who was found shot to death
in his car last year. Arthur James Roland was 28 years old at the time
when he was found slumped over the steering wheel of his car at about 7
p.m. on the evening of October 30. Escambia County Investigators had
been working since then and recently issued a warrant for suspect
Kenneth Eriby of North “V” Street in Pensacola. At 9:30 this morning at
a motel located on Highway 29 in Pensacola the Task Force caught up with
Eriby and arrested him without any problems. A female who was wanted
locally on a Petit Theft misdemeanor warrant and two other local men who
were also with Eriby at the time were also arrested on drug charges.
According to investigators there may still be other suspects involved in
Roland’s murder. |
