LAS VEGAS - The U.S. Marshals Service in Nevada arrested a New Jersey fugitive on Wednesday. Authorities say the man shot a disabled man in September.

Marshals located and arrested 20-year-old Daniel Markel near East Summerlin Parkway and North Buffalo Drive. Authorities say Markel approached the victim on September 3, 2009. The victim was sitting on his porch in Newark, New Jersey, when police say Markel shot the man in the back.

Markel is wanted in New Jersey for assault with a deadly weapon. Authorities booked Markel in the Clark County Detention Center. He is pending extradition to New Jersey.

"This was a very efficient arrest," District of Nevada U.S. Marshal Christopher Hoye said. "After developing information that the fugitive was in the valley, it only took three hours to locate and arrest him; once again showing the responsiveness and efficiency of the network of U.S. Marshals Service task forces across the country."

LAS VEGAS -- For months, a group of people terrorized homeowners in the all parts of the Las Vegas valley. Five people have been arrested so far for the string of home invasions and robberies.

David Hayes, Sarah Cowen, Abdul Shakir, Jovan Carter and Leonard Hunt have all been charged with various crimes surrounding the robberies.

On Wednesday night, two of the five suspects were caught at an apartment complex near the Orleans Casino. Police were watching the pair as they burglarized an apartment.

Police say the victims and the homes were randomly targeted.

"Open windows always present a challenge. No animals in the yard," said Metro Lt. Clint Nichols. "People were accosted in the driveway putting groceries in the house. It's those routine things we do everyday they took advantage of."

LAS VEGAS -- Las Vegas police have arrested five suspects accused of breaking into several houses in northwest Las Vegas. Police say the suspects broke into homes, held people at gunpoint, and, in one case, shot a person. Residents in one valley neighborhood say they are relieved the suspects are no longer on the streets.

Northwest valley resident Bob Catalfano says he and his neighbors haven't felt secure in their homes lately. That is because robbers executed a string of home invasion robberies, many on the northwest side of the valley, in recent months. "We use to always feel safe, and now we don't feel safe anymore," he said. "To hear something like this in a local neighborhood was really very frightening."

"Everyone was pretty much on pins and needles, because (the criminals) were working this area up here," added Neighborhood Watch Block Captain Craig Wright.
