The 23-year-old from Brockton was arrested in September, before he was identified as a suspect in the killing, during the investigation. He'd been accused of assault and battery on a police officer investigating the killing, prosecutors said, but he didn't appear at a court hearing.
He was wanted for failing to appear in court, then indicted on the murder charge two months later, while he was still at large.
