A Dallas murder suspect was apprehended west of Clarendon by the Donley County and Hall County sheriffs’ departments Monday evening.
Jeremiah Earl Morrow, a 27-year-old black male, was wanted out of Dallas County for allegedly shooting four people Monday afternoon, killing one of them, and also shooting up a carwash in that community.
Donley County Sheriff Butch Blackburn said his office received a “be on the lookout” alert after a Hall County deputy tailed Morrow into Donley County.
The Hall County deputy followed the suspect, who was driving a burgundy Chevrolet Lumina, until Blackburn could catch up to them and back him up about about eight miles west of Clarendon on US 287.
Blackburn then pulled Morrow over, detained him, and placed him under arrest.
Donley County Deputy Sonny Morasco and law enforcement units from the Department of Public Safety and a Texas Game Warden also converged on the scene.
Morrow was arraigned by Justice of the Peace Sarah Hatley on a Dallas County charge of First Degree Murder, and bond was set at $2 million.
Morrow remained in the Donley County Jail at press time Tuesday afternoon, awaiting transfer back to Dallas.
