Authorities say he was arrested in Brooklyn Wednesday morning on an outstanding warrant, reportedly found by members of the New York/New Jersey Regional Fugitive Task Force hiding in a basement closet.
Detectives will continue to question him in the Dec. 4 slaying of 25-year-old Alastasia Bryan, fatally shot as she sat in her car at East 73rd Street and Avenue L.
He had been described as a person of interest in Bryan's murder, but no charges have been filed.
