Man on Philadelphia's 'most wanted' list arrested in Brookhaven

An 18-year-old man wanted for the September shooting death of a Pennsylvania teenager was arrested Wednesday at an undisclosed Brookhaven apartment, authorities said.

Gavin Duffy, spokesman for the U.S. Marshals Service in Atlanta, said Jason Broaster, who was one of Philadelphia’s most wanted fugitives, was arrested by marshals and Brookhaven police.

A handgun and “trafficking amounts of suspected prescription drugs” were seized during the arrest, Duffy said.

Naaire Murray, 17, was shot and killed during a Sept. 8 argument at a home in North Philadelphia, according to FOX 29 Philly.
