Fredericksburg, VA-Police arrested a man in Georgia in connection with the July stabbing death of a man whose body was found in a homeless camp in Fredericksburg.
Juan Antonio Zarco Melchor, 43, who goes by the street name of "Michaocano," was arrested in Marietta, Georgia at the home of a relative. Police said they believe Zarco fled Virginia following the fatal stabbing of Armando Escobar.
