CLOVIS, N.M. (AP) - New Mexico authorities say an arrest has been made in a Chaves County cold-case homicide investigation.

Authorities say 37-year-old Ramon Bravo was taken into custody without incident Monday in connection with the 2003 slaying of his estranged wife in Roswell.

Roswell police say 27-year-old Susan Amos-Bravo was found dead at her home on April 26, 2003. Police later learned that the night before, she had asked Ramon Bravo to sign divorce papers.

Prosecutors say Ramon Bravo faces life in prison if he's convicted. He's jailed on a $500,000 cash bond and will be arraigned in a 5th Judicial District Court within the next 10 days.
