A Michigan man allegedly shot his mother to death on Labor Day and has been on the run ever since. Now, police say he has been arrested while ordering a pizza at Domino’s.
Around 2 p.m. on Sept. 4, officers responded to a home after a 911 call came in reporting suspicious circumstances, WWJ-TV reported.
Once inside the residence, police said they found a 64-year-old woman dead.
According to the Michigan State Police, they were contacted by the Inkster Police to help in a homicide investigation involving the shooting death of a 64-year-old woman.
Detectives identified the victim’s son, 25-year-old Joshua Hill, as the suspect and said he fled in either a 2005 or 2020 Ford Escape.
According to the Wayne County Prosecutor’s Office, Hill allegedly got into a verbal argument with his mother and threatened her with a gun.

Detroit Police Chief James White said the officer who found Hill “did not have to engage in a use of force with him, someone who obviously has very little to lose and was, in fact, armed,” WJBK reported.
Hill was returned to Inkster Police, where he was charged with first-degree premeditated murder and a firearm count, officials said.
He is being held on a $1 million bond.
