Leonard Bernard Black, 32, was booked into Pima County Jail on a first degree murder warrant, police said.
On Aug. 20, detectives obtained a warrant for his arrest, police said. Later that day, Black was found by ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ SWAT and officers at an apartment complex in the 4600 block of East 29th Street.
At 5:30 a.m. on Aug. 19, officers arrived at a home in the 2400 block of North Edith Boulevard, near Grant and Country Club roads, and found Roberto Valdez, 36, with sharp-force trauma, police said.
