Brazilian Arrested For Leamington Man's Murder

The man wanted for the 2013 murder of Leamington businessman Dean Tiessen has apparently been arrested in Sao Paolo, Brazil , according to several reports out of Brazil.

They say military police arrested 26-year-old Thomas Manoel Paulino on an unrelated matter last night.

Paulino was reportedly arrested with a pistol and a large amount of drugs.

Tiessen was on a business trip to Brazil for his company New Energy Farms, when he was shot along a road during a car jacking.
