A 31-year-old man was arrested in North Portland Thursday on suspicion of killing two men in a Vancouver home on March 19.

Arkangel D. Howard is being held in the Multnomah County Detention Center on suspicion of murder, according to Vancouver police. He is awaiting extradition to Clark County to face charges related to the deaths of 37-year-old Allen J. Collins and 42-year-old Jason D. Benton.

An autopsy found both men were shot several times.

Howard was arrested around 12:45 p.m. at a home in the 1900 block of North Adriatic Avenue, said Eric Wahlstrom, supervising deputy of the U.S. Marshals Service in Portland.

Authorities have not released details on what led to the shooting.
