DENTON, Texas — Denton Police said Tuesday evening that they have arrested Silvester Williams, 29, on capital murder charges relating to a March 23 shooting that left two dead.
Police initially responded to a call of shots fired at an apartment complex along the 1300 block of Dallas Drive at approximately 10 p.m. on March 23.
Upon getting to the location, police said officers found two people, an adult male and an adult female, deceased of gunshot wounds in a vehicle found near the apartment complex.
They determined at that time that any suspect or suspects in the shooting had fled the area before police arrived, and that the situation posed no additional threat for those nearby.
The Tarrant County Medical Examiner’s Office has since identified the victims as 29-year-old Breanna Dunn and 43-year-old Ronald Calvert Jr.
Denton police said detectives arrested Williams in Lewisville on Monday.
Police said that their investigation found numerous pieces of evidence that linked Williams to the shooting and made it clear that he and Calvert knew one another, confirming that the shooting wasn't a random act.
The Denton Police department said the Joint East Texas Fugitive Task Force, which consists of Denton PD, the Denton County Sheriff’s Office and Carrollton Police, collaborated in tracking down Williams and taking him into custody on Monday.
