BEAUMONT, Texas — The third person of interest in a homicide case, Shanna King, was arrested by Beaumont police officers Sunday morning on an unrelated warrant.
King is currently being interviewed by detectives, according to Beaumont Sergeant Tom Swope.
Ronald Barnes, 57, died from a "gunshot wound of the shoulder and neck," according to the autopsy report.
Just after 3 a.m., on September 14, officers responded to a house in the 2200 block of Ives St. in reference to a homicide.
When they got there, they found the body of Barnes inside the house.
Police have already spoken to at least two other "persons of interest" in connection with the homicide.
Beaumont Police Department's Crimes Against Persons Detectives, in coordination with the Narcotics Unit, are leading the investigation.
Police ask that if anyone has information on King's whereabouts to contact the Beaumont Police Department at 409-832-1234.
