Police arrest suspect in homicide investigation

One suspect has been arrest in the homicide of 69-year-old Reginald John Frickey.

Just after 10:30 a.m. Thursday, 25-year-old Joshua Bulmer was arrested and charged with first-degree murder and break and enter.

"The investigation led us to extensive video canvassing and collection of information. This was a true, old-school investigation through cameras, canvassing, talking to the public and tracking down the video to our suspect's area," said Staff Sergeant Ted Novak.

Investigators were able to track the suspect on video from the victim's home on Highland Avenue to Pierre Avenue where he was arrested.

Police confirmed this was an isolated incident and the victim was known to the suspect.

"At this time the motive is being further investigated and that will be held for the court process," said Novak.

The second person seen in video footage released by police had no connection to the incident. Police say the accused was the only one involved.
