A suspect wanted for allegedly shooting and killing a man at a Colorado Springs sports bar has been arrested in Illinois.

Victor Ortiz, 26, was arrested Wednesday afternoon in Zion, Illinois. An arrest warrant was issued for Ortiz earlier this month when he disappeared after the shooting death of Keith Lewis, 32.

Lewis was killed on June 22 at The One Sports Bar at 1840 N. Academy Boulevard.

There is no word on if or when Ortiz will face extradition.
