A man wanted in connection to a murder on East 4th Street in Hopkinsville Friday night has been located Sunday afternoon.
Hopkinsville Police say 32-year-old Tavaris Quarles has been charged in the shooting death of 33-year-old Christopher Mumford who was found in front of a home on East 4th Street with a gunshot wound to the head.
Quarles reportedly shot Mumford when he and some friends knocked on Quarles’s door.
Mumford was pronounced dead at the scene by the Christian County Coroner’s Office.
East 4th Street was blocked off by police vehicles and crime scene tape in the area of Mount Olive Baptist Church as they investigated the shooting.
Quarles was taken into custody Sunday and charged with murder.
Quarles was also indicted Friday by the Christian County Grand Jury for trafficking cocaine, his second offense, and tampering with physical evidence.
