A man with ties to the Aryan Brotherhood white supremacist gang was arrested Sunday for shooting and killing a man after an argument, according to court records.

Anthony Voight, 53, is facing a murder charge for killing Cruz Burnham while Burnham was exiting Voight’s property in Red Rock, according to Voight’s arrest affidavit.

Voight confessed to the killing after Bastrop County deputies arrived and placed him in custody.

A witness on scene told police that she and Burnham went to Voight’s house, at 295 FM 812, to gather her personal belongings, according to his affidavit. The two men began to argue when she and Burnham were leaving the home, and Voight ended shooting Burnham as the latter approached a gate, the document says.

Voight was booked in the Bastrop County jail Monday on bail set at $500,000 and was magistrated Tuesday afternoon by Bastrop County District Judge Chris Duggan.

Voight has known ties to Aryan gangs, according to the San Marcos Police Department, which arrested Voight and 17 other people who were part of a major crime ring last year.

A multi-year San Marcos police investigation found that the crime ring was responsible for stealing heavy equipment, vehicles, trailers and tools from construction sites, buildings and vehicles across the state. The group would resell those items through their criminal network in exchange for cash or large quantities of methamphetamine, according to police. San Marcos detectives estimated that the crime ring stole more than $765,000 worth of property while in operation.

Some of that property police recovered were found on Voight’s property in Red Rock.

The investigation also found that many of the members of the crime ring were members of the Aryan Circle and the Aryan Brotherhood of Texas.

“All indications are that (Voight) is connected to the Aryan Brotherhood due to his associates and others connected to the thefts being confirmed members of the organization,” San Marcos police said in an email Tuesday. “The San Marcos Police Department cannot state with 100% certainty that Voight is a classified or confirmed gang member, only that several in his network were confirmed Aryan Brotherhood which shows he is connected to the organization.”

Burnham’s killing is the fourth homicide in Bastrop County this year. In June, Blake Vetter was charged with murder after police say he killed his roommate while he was sleeping in their home. In March, Tomas Sanchez-Solorzano was arrested and charged with murder after a missing woman’s body was found in a grave off Lower Elgin Road in western Bastrop County. And in February, Ronald Boatright was arrested and charged with shooting and killing his wife’s son in their Cedar Creek home, according to court records.
