Officers later found the woman at the scene and discovered she had been shot. She was taken to a nearby hospital, where she later died.
The man then ran away from the scene.
Police later found a witness who had encountered the man and helped him order a ride-share to Dallas.
Denton officers were able to coordinate with Dallas officers and track the man’s movement in real time. Once the driver stopped, the man was quickly arrested. He was transported back to the Denton County Jail where he was identified as 22-year-old Simeon Bonilla.
Bonilla has been charged with murder and currently remains behind bars on a $500,000 bond.
The northbound lanes of Interstate 35E in Denton were shut down for a short time Wednesday afternoon as police investigated a shooting and searched for the gunman.
