9/17/13 - A Detroit man suspected of selling drugs to a Brighton Township woman shortly before she fatally overdosed has been arrested and is awaiting arraignment. The 2nd District Michigan State Police Fugitive Team arrested 30-year-old Sofronzo Eric Horne at his Detroit residence without incident yesterday morning. He was wanted for delivering a controlled substance causing death. The charge stems from the July 4th death of 28-year-old Deidre Alvis in Genoa Township. MSP Detective Sergeant Scott Singleton tells WHMI she died of drug intoxication after using heroin, and that the State Police investigation into her death revealed that she had purchased heroin from Horne. The State Police arrested Horne on July 9th as well, and that arrest had turned up contraband including heroin and a shotgun. No contraband was found during yesterday's arrest. Horn is currently being held in the Livingston County Jail awaiting arraignment, which is expected to happen today. (TD)
