Suspect Arrested After Attempted Murder Pursuit in LA

Jeremiah Marquis Macias Lacy, a 27-year-old murder suspect, was arrested in Fairfield, California, after being on the run for over three years. Lacy was wanted for the October 2021 murder of Christina Velez during a robbery that also injured another person. His arrest occurred following a routine traffic stop where he failed to provide identification, leading officers to identify him via a fingerprint reader. In a separate incident, Los Angeles police arrested an alleged attempted murder suspect after a brief pursuit ended with the suspect hiding in a trash can downtown. The pursuit began early in the morning when police attempted to stop the suspect’s red Dodge Ram pickup truck, which he fled in. The attempted murder details remain unclear, including whether the suspect was armed during his capture.
