New York: A man has been arrested for allegedly killing an Indian-origin police officer during a traffic stop in California’s Newman county, officials said.
The suspect was identified as Gustavo Perez Arriaga, 33, who came to the US illegally and was believed to have been fleeing to Mexico, Stanislaus County Sheriff Adam Christianson told CNN on Friday.
Arriaga was arrested from a home in Kern County, about 200 miles south of where the shooting occurred on Christmas night.
Officer Ronil Singh, 33, pulled over the suspect just before 1 a.m. Wednesday and a few moments later called out “shot fired” over the radio.
