KLAMATH FALLS, Ore. (AP) — A 45-year-old Klamath Falls transient is in jail on a murder charge.

The Herald and News reports that Aaron Henry Harrison was jailed in Klamath Falls Wednesday after being extradited from California.

He is accused of killing 64-year-old Larry Leroy Cline, who was found beaten to death in his Klamath Falls home. Authorities say the slaying may have come in a bungled burglary.

Investigators tracked Harrison to a relative’s home in Sacramento, Calif., where he was arrested after a short standoff with a SWAT team.
