Deputies in Hempstead County arrested a man in Hope
today wanted in a triple slaying at a steakhouse in Texarkana,
Texas.
Officials say 25-year-old Stephon Lavelle Walter was wanted for
capital murder in the killings of three workers at an Outback
Steakhouse. Hempstead County Sheriff Jerry Crane says Walter has
made an appearance before a judge and waived extradition
proceedings.
The bodies of 31-year-old steakhouse proprietor Matt Hines,
23-year-old Chrissy Willis and 24-year-old Rebecca Shifflet were
found early Monday in the restaurant office.
Shifflet was six months pregnant.
