WORCESTER, Mass. (AP) — Police in California have arrested a man wanted in connection with the deaths of a mother and her 11-year-old daughter in Massachusetts who were fatally shot while sitting in a parked SUV. Charges against another man arrested earlier in the case have been upgraded to murder. Police say the latest arrest happened Monday in San Diego during a motor vehicle stop, nearly a week after 27-year-old Chasity Nunez and her daughter, Zella Nunez, were found in the vehicle in Worcester. A man arrested in connection with the deaths last week in Worcester pleaded not guilty Tuesday to two counts of murder and is being held without bail.
