The Republic
Police officials confirmed that a suspect arrested on Saturday in Winslow, Arizona, was wanted on charges of rape and murder of a Louisiana teen girl.
Arizona authorities assisted in the arrest of Montrell Donell Holmes, who was suspected of killing 14-year-old Ashley Barnes.
In a Facebook post made by the Bastrop Police Department, police officials said they were conducting a homicide investigation after they discovered a body in the woods, later identified as Barnes.
Officials said a suspect was arrested in connection to the case, identified as Holmes.
On Saturday, officials from the U.S. Marshals Service said their Flagstaff office received a request from the Marshals Service’s Western District of Louisiana Violent Offender Task Force to help locate and arrest Holmes.
Officials said he was wanted on charges of the murder and rape of Barnes.
The Marshals Service’s Flagstaff task force officers, in coordination with the Flagstaff Police Department and Department of Public Safety, located and arrested Holmes using cellphone tower pings. He was arrested in Winslow, just by Highway Interstate 40 and North Park Drive.
Officials said Holmes was awaiting transport back to the Western District of Louisiana, where he will face his charges. The Bastrop Police Department was still investigating the murder.

Cardinals Disrespected in Uniform Rankings
ARIZONA — Much like anything new, not many were fans of the Arizona Cardinals’ new uniforms when they were first introduced last offseason.
A new era of football was underway in the desert with the fresh presence of Jonathan Gannon and Monti Ossenfort, and thus the timing for a fresh set of uniforms couldn’t have been better.
The previous set was fairly old and outdated.
While the newest looks aren’t exactly top of the league, it’s hard to say they’re not an upgrade from what we previously saw at State Farm Stadium.
The Cardinals still rank near the bottom of recent NFL uniform rankings, however. USA Today had the organization at No. 26.
“Are they effectively Ohio State West since last year’s redesign? Yeah, basically. Is that a notable improvement from where they’d been? Yeah, basically,” said Nate Davis.
Well, that’s a lazy take.
The Ohio State comps were popular, sure, especially with the gray on the side of the sleeves for their white road and black alternate jerseys, though that color was added as a nod to the organization’s past.
The Cardinals found themselves behind teams such as the Rams, Falcons, Titans and Giants in USA Today’s rankings.
Even Atlanta fans will tell you the “ATL” and numbers look ridiculous.
As for the Titans, nobody’s exactly rushing to buy these.
The Cardinals could probably benefit from a pair of throwback uniforms, and though Arizona clearly doesn’t have the best-looking threads in the league, their overall standing in the uniform rankings near the bottom is laughable.
For what it’s worth, the Chargers/Raiders/Steelers being atop the league is tough to argue.
