UPDATE: Medicine Technician Arrested in Murder of Millionaire Philanthropist; Police Say Suspect Wore Wig
Authorities in Maryland have arrested a suspect in the murder of millionaire philanthropist Robert Fuller Jr at a senior living facility in Maryland.
The Montgomery Police Department has announced that Maurquise James, 22, a medicine technician who was employed by the Cogir Potomac Senior Living Facility, has been arrested for the murder of Robert Fuller Jr.
As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, the Montgomery County Police on Saturday released surveillance footage of a suspect they believed was connected to the murder.
In surveillance footage, a person wearing a plaid jacket and appearing to have long hair was seen entering the senior living facility where Fuller resided.
Shortly after the surveillance footage was released to the public, employees notified authorities that James wore the same plaid jacket to the senior living facility on multiple occasions.
Captain Sean Gheen said detectives also received a tip from a staff member at the senior living facility who informed authorities that James had been at the facility after his work hours on the night of the murder.
On Tuesday morning, James was arrested after he fired shots at a Maryland State Trooper, and detectives were able to match the bullet casings to those found at the murder of Fuller.
