BALTIMORE—A man was arrested in the killing of a Baltimore tech entrepreneur who had built a successful startup that earned her national recognition, police said early Thursday.
Police didn’t release any details of the circumstances surrounding the arrest of Jason Billingsley following the death of 26-year-old Pava LaPere, but planned a news conference later in the morning. Police had announced an arrest warrant earlier in the week, saying that Mr. Billingsley was wanted on a first-degree murder charge in Ms. LaPere’s death.
