LAS VEGAS (AP) — Police say a 51-year-old man is jailed in Las Vegas pending his return in custody to Oregon to face murder and other charges in a slaying more than 19 years ago.
Records show that Thomas Colbert was held Wednesday at the Clark County jail pending an extradition hearing before a Nevada state court judge.
Police say Colbert was arrested Friday after he was found living in Indian Springs, 45 miles northwest of Las Vegas.
Colbert and 46-year-old George Bogan were indicted Feb. 7 in Grant County, Ore., in the October 1992 disappearance of 36-year-old Danny Sweet near Mitchell, Ore.
