FARGO (KFGO) – A murder suspect who was arrested by the State Patrol near Mapleton, North Dakota last week was wanted for a July shooting in Des Moines, Washington.
20-year-old Joseph Morrison was one of three suspects in the shooting death of a man who was in a car in the parking lot of a supermarket. Des Moines Police say the two other suspects were arrested not long after the shooting. Morrison was identified as the third suspect, but was not located. He was stopped on I-94 last Tuesday afternoon for an equipment violation and the trooper discovered that he was wanted for murder. Investigators have not released a possible motive for the shooting.
Morrison remains in the Cass County Jail.
