A man with Chicago ties wanted by the FBI in connection with a double homicide in Milwaukee has been taken into custody in Texas.
Terry Strickland, 24, was arrested in El Paso, Texas, the FBI office in Milwaukee said in a statement on Twitter Sunday.
On July 17, 2016, Milwaukee police responded to reports of a shooting at a residence in the 3500 block of North 26th Street, according to a statement from the FBI. When officers arrived, they found two men, ages 38 and 39, who suffered gunshot wounds and were pronounced dead at the scene.
Strickland was charged with first-degree intentional homicide and a state arrest warrant was issued July 28, 2016, according to the FBI. Strickland was also charged Oct. 7, 2016, with unlawful flight to avoid prosecution and a federal arrest warrant was issued.
The FBI added Strickland to its Most Wanted list in December and offered a reward of up to $100,000 for information leading to his arrest.
