A traffic stop over the weekend in Oklahoma City led police to arrest a man in connection to the murder of a Guthrie woman.

According to the Oklahoma City Police Department, officers observed a vehicle driving erratically on Sunday around 9:45 p.m. near NW 36th and N. Grand Blvd.

Police pulled the vehicle over at a convenience store, where they learned that the driver, 41-year-old Shawn Tackitt, had apparently been involved in a shooting. Police say Tackitt indicated that the victim had been dropped off at an Oklahoma City hospital.

Tackitt, who has a lengthy criminal record, was later arrested and booked into the Oklahoma County Jail on a complaint of first-degree murder.

Fowler leaves behind three children.
