Police arrest suspect in road-rage killing of Vegas mother

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Police arrested a suspect Thursday in the road-rage killing of a Las Vegas mother after SWAT teams swarmed a home about a block from the site where she was shot a week ago.
Police did not release the male suspect's name or discuss his possible involvement in the killing of 44-year-old Tammy Meyers. The shirtless suspect was led into a car by an officer and taken to police headquarters for questioning.
"We still have a lot of investigative work to do," Las Vegas police Capt. Chris Tomaino said.
The case has received significant attention since police initially said Meyers was killed by an angry driver who followed her home after she gave her teenage daughter a driving lesson.
She was removed from life support on Valentine's Day as police hunted for a suspect, and donations for her funeral costs quickly poured in to a fundraising site.
The sympathy morphed into skepticism after police revealed that Meyers was not followed home, and instead dropped her daughter off and picked up her 22-year-old son, armed with his 9 mm handgun, to try to confront the driver who had frightened her earlier.
