PORTSMOUTH, Va. (WAVY) — A man wanted in the 2015 murder of a Portsmouth woman has been caught in Florida.
An official with the U.S. Marshals confirms to WAVY.com that Darryl Faine was arrested Friday morning during a traffic stop in Jacksonville.
Marshals say 26-year-old Monique Landis was shot and killed in December 2015 at an apartment on Gateway Drive. Faine was initially named a person of interest, before becoming a suspect wanted on charges including second-degree murder.
Marshals say Faine had been living under the alias “Carl Jones” for two years, bouncing between different homes and working under-the-table jobs.
A fugitive task force and the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office arrested Faine after he was identified as the passenger in a vehicle.
Faine will be held at Duval County Jail in Jacksonville until he returned to Virginia.
