A fugitive named William Shakespeare, accused of a June 2016 killing in Mattapan, was captured this morning in the Bronx.

Shakespeare, 29, was indicted by a grand jury last September after the June 14 fatal shooting of Marcus Hall inside a Mattapan barber shop.

"Boston Police Homicide detectives and prosecutors from Suffolk County District Attorney Dan Conley's office worked tirelessly investigating and ultimately identifying Shakespeare as the suspect responsible for this brazen daytime murder," Boston Police said in a statement. "The investigation led authorities to believe that Shakespeare fled the state shortly after the murder to avoid capture."

A lengthy investigation ensued, until the Boston Police Fugitive Apprehension Unit, US Marshals and NYPD located and arrested Shakespeare Tuesday morning in the Bronx, New York.

Shakespeare will be extradited to Boston, where he will face charges of first-degree murder, unlawful possession of a firearm, unlawful possession of ammunition and unlawfully carrying a loaded firearm.

"This arrest illustrates the commitment and extraordinary work of my investigators and officers. It sends a strong message that no matter where you run to, we will find you and we will arrest you," Boston Police Commissioner William Evans said in a statement. "I pray that the news of this arrest brings some level of peace to the family of the victim, and I wish to thank my officers and all who helped locate and arrest this dangerous criminal."
