Texas Murder Suspect Apprehended in Crestview

July 14, 2017

A 30 year old Texas man wanted in connection with the shooting death of his girlfriend in Fort Worth Texas last month was arrested on Friday in Crestview.

The Fort Worth Police Department has been trying to locate Qjuan Taikel Holmes since the body of 41-year old Angela Gagne, a mother of five, was found in her home June 12th. She had suffered five gunshot wounds.

Investigators believe she was shot and robbed following an argument with Holmes. His older brother, Xondadric Holmes was located and arrested for capital murder, but Qjuan had disappeared.

The Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office received word from the U.S. Marshals Service out of Fort Worth on Wednesday that Qjuan Holmes may be in the Crestview area.

OCSO Investigators from the Fugitive Warrants Unit and Special Investigations Section, along with members of the 1st Judicial Circuit State Attorney’s Office, tracked Holmes to an address on Cabana Way.

He was taken into custody yesterday without incident as a fugitive from justice and transported to the Okaloosa County Jail to await extradition to Texas.
