Steve Evans, 32, a fugitive wanted in Florida by the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office was arrested this afternoon in Las Vegas by the U.S. Marshals Fugitive Task Force.  
 
A warrant was issued charging Evans with homicide.  
 
The charges stem from an incident in which Evans allegedly killed another man during an altercation at a nightclub in Brandon, Florida.

He was booked into the Clark County Detention Center pending his extradition to Florida.
