GAINESVILLE, TX -- A Montague man is behind bars in Cooke County for capital murder.

Roger Allen Clark, 39, was arrested in connection with the death of 26-year-old Patrick William Fleitman, Jr.

Sheriff Mike Compton says Fleitman was found dead in his yard off of County Road 320, just outside of Gainesville back in February.

Cooke County deputies were assisted in their investigation by the Texas Rangers.

No word whether prosecutors will seek the death penalty for Clark.
