Gang Unit detectives and South Precinct officers this afternoon apprehended murder fugitive Joseph Dunlap, 31, who is under indictment for the January fatal shooting of Golden Hairston, 28, in the parking lot of Hickory Highlands Apartments.
Acting on information that Dunlap was in the area of Chimney Top Apartments in the Hickory Hollow area, Gang Unit detectives set up surveillance and spotted Dunlap. A foot chase ensued before Dunlap was taken into custody.
Hairston, of Bell Road, was outside his car talking to another man when a black SUV pulled up last January 7. Shots were fired from the SUV. Hairston was hit and fell to the ground.
Investigation by Detective Derry Baltimore led to Dunlap’s indictment on charges of 1st degree murder and attempted especially aggravated robbery.
