Little Rock police on Friday arrested a man who faces a capital murder charge in the shooting of a man whose body was found last week, according to a tweet from the department.

Officers arrested Omarion Taylor, 20, on Friday, the tweet stated, in connection with the death of James Moore, 30.

Police located Moore's body on May 28 in the 2600 block of West 12th Street, but they determined that the killing happened May 27 near 11th and Thayer streets, the tweet states.

State Crime Laboratory personnel had been conducting an autopsy on Moore and determined the death was a homicide. Moore died of a gunshot wound, police spokesman Mark Edwards said Saturday.

Taylor was being held in the Pulaski County jail on Saturday, the jail's online inmate roster showed.
