Harrisburg, PA – Today, United States Marshal Martin J. Pane announced the arrest of Andres Rodriguez, a 23-year old Newmanstown man.

On November 27, 2020, the Lebanon Police Department investigated the fatal shooting of a man near the intersection of Chapel and South Seventh Streets. As a result of their investigation, detectives obtained an arrest warrant charging Rodriguez with homicide and lesser included offenses. Attempts to find Rodriguez in Lebanon were unsuccessful and the fugitive case was adopted by the U.S. Marshals Service (USMS) Fugitive Task Force.

We give these types of cases our utmost attention. It is my hope that the family members will find comfort knowing the alleged attacker will face justice."
