Danny Lopez, 42, was caught in the Silver Mine Game Room on HWY 198 outside of Mabank around 9:30 p.m.

He was wanted by the Las Vegas Metro Police Department for murder and was sweating profusely when approached by two Hillhouse’s Deputies.

Lopez was also carrying methamphetamines.

"These players aren't safe places," Hillhouse said. "We always find felony fugitives, we're always finding drugs in them, so please don't go to them."
