YAKIMA, Wash. (AP) — Yakima police arrested a 24-year-old man suspected of killing another man Saturday while riding in his nephew's car.

The suspect was taken into custody Tuesday by SWAT officers after a half-hour standoff at a duplex.

Authorities believe the 16-year-old nephew is a gang member but they do not believe the shooting victim, 40-year-old David Duarte, was involved in gangs.
