The Metropolitan Police Department arrested a 32-year-old suspected who was wanted in connection to a homicide that took place in February.
According to a press release, police arrested Stephon Green for first-degree murder while armed on Aug. 18. The suspect allegedly shot 31-year-old Cordaro Pierre Chambers on the 2100 block of I Street, NE on Feb. 17.
On Aug. 19, the prosecution decided to not charge Green with homicide. Instead, the defendant is charged obstruction of justice in the case. He is scheduled for another hearing on Sept. 14.
According to court documents, Green was arrested because he decided to refuse orders by DC Superior Court Judge Patricia Broderick for his fingerprints. The defendant was placed under arrest for impeding in an ongoing homicide investigation.
Police also say Green has been arrested in the past on two occasions for carrying a pistol without a license.
