A suspect in the murder of a 21-year-old Killeen man who went missing last week was located and arrested around 9:30 p.m. Wednesday by US Marshals, according to Temple police.

BELL COUNTY — A suspect in the murder of a 21-year-old Killeen man who went missing last week was arrested around 9:30 p.m. Wednesday by US Marshals, according to Temple Police.

Raymond McKinnon, 26, of Lawton, Oklahoma, was taken into custody and booked into the Comanche County Jail on a murder charge. His bond was set at $1-million

The victim, Hassan Lindsey Jr. was last seen on July 10. Family members said they suspected he may have been in some sort of danger.

The search ended tragically Monday when Temple police found Lindsey's body along a road in a rural part of west Bell County. He was identified July 18 and his death was ruled a homicide.

McKinnon was the passenger in a vehicle Temple Police pulled over for speeding on July 11. Police said McKinnon jumped out of the car, screamed he had been shot then collapsed. McKinnon was taken to Baylor Scott and White Medical Center but left the hospital against medical advice the next day. He had been missing since that day.

After McKinnon got out, police said the car sped away and ran two red lights before crashing at the intersection of Airport Road and Twin Oaks Dr.

Two people in the car, Frankie Boyd, 23, and Duvalle Sommerville, 24, tried to run away but were caught a short time later.

Boyd was charged with evading arrest in a motor vehicle, while Sommerville was charged with unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon. Police said Sommerville was carrying two guns in a bag when they caught him.

According to an arrest affidavit, Sommerville has a prior conviction in Travis County for a robbery on July 8, 2016.
