A man who is believed to be responsible for the ambush and murder of a Harris County, Texas sheriff's deputy on Oct. 16 has been apprehended by Houston Police.
The man allegedly fired the gun that killed Deputy Kareem Atkins, who was ambushed, shot, and killed.
Deputy Atkins was reportedly working "police-related extra jobs" with two other deputies at 44 North Bar and Lounge nightclub in Houston.
Atkins was 30-years-old and survived by his wife, 6-month-old son, and 2-year-old daughter, KHOU 11 reported.
On Oct. 20, Houston Police offered up to $75,000 for information leading to the arrest of suspects in the shooting.
The department is set to offer more information on the arrest later this week.
