FOND DU LAC (WLUK) -- Nearly six months after a domestic violence incident that spurred a national search, a man accused of attempted murder has been arrested for his alleged role in the incident. The Fond du Lac Police Department reported Friday that 46-year-old Lataye Smith was arrested earlier this week in Chicago. Smith is now awaiting extradition to Wisconsin. On Jan. 7 , Fond du Lac police responded to an apartment in the 100 block of S. Main Street around 3:30 a.m. after receiving notice of a domestic violence incident.
