Arlington man accused of killing burglar
The sheriff's office says a 38-year-old man was booked into jail Wednesday night for investigation of murder.
The body of a 25-year-old man had been found earlier Wednesday by a neighbor.
On Monday the 38-year-old man had reported he saw a man running out of his house and that some of his wife's jewelry was missing. The 38-year-old called later that day and said he saw the suspect again.
Neighbors later told investigators they heard gunshots Monday afternoon and that the homeowner said he had fired warning shots.
Stolen jewelry was on the dead man's body.
