A Denton man was arrested Thursday evening and charged with murder in the shooting death of his ex-girlfriend.
Angel Agosto, 46, was arrested just south of Argyle on Interstate 35W, accused of killing 43-year-old Rosa Vegas, Denton police spokesman Ryan Grelle said.
According to police, officers responded about 8 p.m. to a report of shots fired at the home of Agosto’s ex-wife in the 600 block of Chambers Street. Vegas was found with multiple gunshot wounds at the home and was taken to an area hospital, where she later died.
The relationship between Agosto’s ex-wife and Vegas is unknown, police said.
Witnesses told police that Agosto had fled the scene and was headed toward Fort Worth. Officers alerted to be on the lookout for his vehicle stopped him in Argyle, where he was taken into custody without incident.
