TAMPA, Fla. - A Tampa woman was arrested by US Marshals in New Jersey for allegedly shooting and killing a man at Tzadik Oaks Apartments back in September.
Police were called to the complex, located at 1266 E. 113th Ave. in Tampa, just after 11 p.m. Sept. 13.
Officers said they found a 32-year-old man with gunshot wounds. He died from his injuries. They also said they located a woman who had non-life-threatening injuries.
At the time, there seemed to be no witnesses to what happened. Later, investigators watched surveillance video and managed to speak to some possible witnesses and identified 33-year-old Christina Robles as a suspect.
