MESA, Ariz. (AP) - Police in Mesa say a man has been arrested in connection with a shooting at a hotel that left one person dead and another injured.
They say 44-year-old Anthony Wayne Gushee was taken into custody late Monday night.
He's jailed on suspicion of one count each of second-degree murder and aggravated assault.
Police were called to the hotel Monday afternoon and found two people with gunshot wounds inside a room.
They say the man was pronounced dead at the scene and the woman was taken to a hospital with leg injuries.
Their names haven't been released.
The woman told police Gushee allegedly shot them because he thought they stole his drugs.
Police say Gushee has a history of drug-related offenses.
It was unclear Tuesday if Gushee has a lawyer yet.
