A man is under arrest in connection with a murder that happened two years ago near downtown Las Vegas.

Police arrested Jessie Arredondo on charges of murder with a deadly weapon.

According to police, Arredondo shot and killed Daniel Garcia August 15, 2012 at the El Paso Market near Owens Avenue and Pecos Road.

Witnesses told police that the suspect and two other men talked to the victim and asked him where he was from. When he answered "Blythe", the suspect shot him several times, police said.

A warrant was issued for Arredondo's arrest shortly after the murder in 2012.

However, he wasn't arrested until recently in San Diego. He waived extradition and was returned to Las Vegas. Arredondo was booked into the Clark County Detention Center Thursday.
