Less than a week after a Seattle woman was accused of fatal firing a US border patrol agent in Vermont, a Seattle man was arrested and charged with murder in Northern California – and it seems that the two arrests were linked.
Employees from Solano County Sheriff confirmed that Curtis Lind, an 82-year-old landlord, had been stabbed to death. Around 12:40 pm January 17. The 22 -year -old Maximilian Snyder has been arrested in Reading, California, and has been accused of killing Lind in the Supreme Court of Solano County, according to court documents received by Seattle Times.
While conducting Snyder’s check and uniting previous legal documentation on suspect, it was revealed that Snyder had applied for a marriage license last November of the 21 -year -old Teresa Youngbut, a resident of Seattle, who is a former high school classmate. Youngblut was arrested only a week earlier for his participation in the shootout and the subsequent death of the border patrol agent David Maland, 44. Maland died on January 20 during a shooting in Vermont near the Canadian border called Coventry.
