BELLINGHAM, Wash. -- An Everett man suspected of murder is in Whatcom County Jail for shoplifting.

Everett police spokesman Aaron Snow says 31-year-old Derec Donnelly is suspected in the murder of 23-year-old Luis Verduzco who was found dead in the backyard of a vacant Everett house April 24.

Bellingham police spokesman Mark Young says Donnelly was arrested last night at Macy’s in the Bellis Fair Mall when he tried to leave the store wearing clothes he had not paid for.

Snow says Donnelly will be transferred to Everett Police once he is finished with the shoplifting charges here in Bellingham.
