Chrystal Martin, 28, was arrested Wednesday in suburban Lyons after she was identified as a participant in the Jan. 4 murder of Timothy Vallianatos, Chicago police said.

Vallianatos, 56, was found shot to death inside a home in the 2100 block of South Michigan Avenue, police said.

Witnesses told officers they heard a struggle in the man’s apartment before the officers arrived, police said at the time.

Martin was expected in court later Thursday for a murder charge.
