BERKELEY, Calif. (AP) – A man suspected of fatally shooting a high school friend has been arrested after eluding police for two months, authorities said.

Christopher Lester Hollis, 22, was arrested in Fresno after a traffic stop Friday night, Berkeley police Lt. Wesley Hester said.

Meleia Willis-Starbuck, 19, a Dartmouth College student home for the summer, was slain July 17 on a Berkeley street, moments after calling Hollis for help as she and some friends argued with a group of young men. Police said she told Hollis to “bring the heat” – meaning bring a gun.

Authorities believe that Hollis fired at the men from a car, unintentionally shooting Willis-Starbuck.

Police said Hollis initially gave Fresno police a false name when stopped at a suspected hit-and-run, but he was quickly identified and arrested.

Hollis was held Sunday without bail on suspicion of murder, officials said. He is expected to appear in an Alameda County court this week.

Christopher Larry Wilson Jr., 20, of Berkeley, is alleged to have been driving the car used in the shooting. He is charged with murder but remains free on bail.
