Arrest made in murder of Penn State student in Philadelphia
PHILADELPHIA —
Philadelphia police have announced the arrest of a suspect in the murder of Billy Schmidt, a 22-year-old Penn State student who was fatally shot in the streets of Philadelphia more than two months ago.
Nineteen-year-old Kadafi Fleming surrendered to police overnight. He was being sought for Schmidt’s murder and the theft of an off-duty officer’s car.
U.S. Marshals say the public and media played an important role in bringing Fleming to justice.
Fleming’s 16-year-old brother was also arrested in connection with Schmidt’s murder.
