TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) - A suspect has been arrested after a fight between two men in front of their Tucson apartment complex turned deadly, police said.

Police said 58-year-old David Eugene Nickerson was pronounced dead at the scene Saturday night.

Witnesses told police that a neighbor walked over to Nickerson and allegedly started the fight.



Tucson Police SWAT Team got into the apartment and arrested 57-year-old Thomas Howard Turner., who has been booked into the Pima County Jail on suspicion of second-degree murder.

It was unclear Sunday if Turner has a lawyer yet who can speak on his behalf.
