Police have arrested a man wanted in the fatal shooting of a security guard at a Canadian National Railway facility in suburban Chicago. 24-year-old Rashad Williams of East Hazel Crest, Illinois, was arrested in Chicago Heights Sunday night.
Williams is suspected in the Nov. 26 death of 38-year-old Tyrone Hardin of Merrillville, Indiana. Police say the shooting occurred while Williams was fleeing after allegedly stealing a car. Police say he also shot at a second person.
Harvey Deputy Police Chief Gregory Thomas credited the public with Williams' arrest, saying tips provided a general location. He says Chicago Heights police helped with surveillance and Williams was spotted in the neighborhood carrying grocery bags.
