[April 24, 2012]  PITTSBURGH (AP) -- A federal prosecutor says a man wanted on charges he stole more than $2 million from an armored car he was paid to guard in Pittsburgh, murdering his partner in the process, has been arrested in Florida.

U.S. Attorney David Hickton of Pittsburgh tells The Associated Press that 22-year-old Kenneth Konias Jr. has been arrested in Pompano Beach, Fla. on Tuesday morning.

KDKA-TV first reported Konias' arrest, saying he had been found at a crack house. Broward County, Fla. sheriff's officials say they could not immediately confirm the arrest.

Konias allegedly fatally shot fellow Garda Cash Logistics guard Michael Haines before fleeing with money from the truck they were guarding on Feb. 28 in Pittsburgh.
