TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) - The Latest on a deputy U.S. marshal killed last week in Tucson: (all times local):
3:50 p.m.
A federal court spokesman says the man arrested in last week’s killing of a deputy U.S marshal in Tucson has been held without bond pending a grand jury hearing.
Cosme Lopez of the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Arizona says a federal magistrate on Tuesday ordered Ryan Phillip Schlesinger to remain behind bars.
The warrant for Schlesinger’s arrest late Thursday accuses him of first-degree murder of a federal officer.
Deputy Marshal Chase White was shot that evening trying to deliver a fugitive warrant to Schlesinger for stalking a female police sergeant. White died at a hospital.
Schlesinger was arrested after a standoff at a Tucson home.
Court filings accuse Schlesinger of harassing the woman and other officers for months after seizing his handgun and specialized ammunition during an earlier arrest.
