Murder suspect arrested in connection with Killeen's 19th homicide of 2022

A 31-year-old man has been arrested for a murder that occurred last week in the 5000 block of Primavera Lane .

Authorities located and arrested Kenneth Lloyd Carter for the homicide on Thursday in Humble, according to the Killeen Police Department.

Carter allegedly shot and killed 34-year-old Stepheno Rashad Gibson about 4:30 p.m. on Nov. 13, Killeen police said. Justice of the Peace Bill Cooke pronounced Gibson dead – at the scene – about 5:15 p.m. that day.

Gibson was the City of Killeen’s 19th murder victim this year.

Police found and took Carter into custody after Killeen Police Department’s Robbery-Homicide Unit had presented the case to the Bell County District Attorney’s Office. A complaint for murder had been returned and arrest warrant issued, a news release Friday said.

Magistrate James Callan, Harris County Criminal Court 4, set Carter’s bond at $25,000, the release said.
