An arrest is reported in a north Kingman homicide. Anthony Hall, 35, Kingman, is jailed in Texas, awaiting extradition to Arizona to stand trial for the murder of Jesus Martinez.

Mohave County sheriff’s deputies conducting a welfare check found the body of the 58-year-old victim last Sunday at his home in the 3600 block of Butler Avenue. The victim’s vehicle, a 2009 Kia sedan, was missing.

Sheriff’s office spokeswoman Anita Mortensen said Hall was driving the stolen vehicle that was pulled over in Austin Tuesday.
