A man wanted in connection with a Connecticut killing has been captured in Bronx.

Authorities say U.S. marshals and New York City police arrested 28-year-old Keith Delvalle in Co-Op City in Bronx, on Wednesday. Police in New London, CT have a warrant accusing Delvalle of murder in the fatal shooting of 29-year-old Jesus Pinero last August.

Delvalle, whose last known address is in New London, is being detained in New York City pending extradition to Connecticut. It is not clear if he has a lawyer.

Connecticut authorities say Pinero, the father of a 4-year-old boy, died of multiple gunshot wounds after someone opened fire at him on August 29, 2013 in New London, CT.

Police have not released details about a motive.
