Police shared no details about what led to Williams’s death, but said today a 29-year-old man has been arrested and charged with one count of second-degree murder.

The accused was scheduled to appear in court on Saturday morning.

Police say they’re also continuing to look for two men and one woman they describe as persons of interest in the case.
