Man wanted for Michigan murder arrested in Morgantown

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — A Michigan suspect wanted for multiple felonies, including murder was arrested in Morgantown Monday morning.

Dion Jamel Flowers Jr., 29, was taken into custody without incident at a residence on Northwest Dr. at around 7:20 a.m.

Flowers is wanted by the Jackson County (MI) Sheriff’s Office for murder, four counts of assault with the intent to murder and various firearms violations.

Flowers and two other suspects are accused of being involved in a shooting in Jackson, Michigan last May.

Two other suspects, Montez White, 27, and Tyrek Rice, 28, were taken into custody by US Marshals in Ohio earlier this year.

Federal officers were assisted Monday by the West Virginia State Police Special Response Team (SRT), the Mon Metro Drug Task Force, ATF, and Monongalia County Sheriff’s Department.

Flowers will be held until his extradition back to Michigan.
