Paris, Tenn.–U.S. Marshals and Paris Police captured a man wanted for a Gibson County homicide today in Paris.
The U.S. Marshals Violent Fugitive Task Force announced the third of three suspects in a November 30 homicide in Gibson County.
Johnny Yarbrough, age 38, of Dyer, was captured at a residence in the 400 block of Harrison Lane in Paris.
Yarbrough was wanted on charges of First-Degree Murder, Especially Aggravated Kidnapping, Possession of a Firearm during Dangerous Felony, and Tampering with Evidence. The charges were filed in connection to the homicide in Trenton.
The first suspect was arrested by Gibson County Sheriff’s deputies shortly after the murder. The second suspect, Tyler Pierce, was arrested December 2 in Toone, Tenn., by U.S. Marshals and the Hardeman County Sheriff’s Office.
“Within a week of this murder and with the assistance of other law enforcement agencies, the task force was able to arrest two violent suspects in different West Tennessee counties,” said U.S. Marshal Tyreece Miller. “The success of this effort is attributed to the determination of the team and importance of our partnerships.”
