A Tyler man wanted in the homicide of a woman found dead Wednesday in a South Broadway Avenue apartment is in custody.

David Michael Thompson, 49, was booked today into Smith County Jail, according to online jail records. He is being held on a murder charge with a $750,000 bond.

Tyler police spokesman Andy Erbaugh said Wednesday an arrest warrant on a murder charge had been issued for Thompson in the death of 40-year-old Jaci Wilkerson. At the time, Erbaugh said Thompson was “to be considered armed and dangerous.”

Police responded at about 3:15 a.m. to a report of a homicide at an apartment complex in the 2700 block of South Broadway Avenue, Erbaugh said.

Upon arrival, officers found a woman who had died inside an apartment. Police later identified the victim as Wilkerson.

In a statement released Wednesday, Erbaugh said the suspect in the case was known to the victim.

“This was not a random attack,” Erbaugh said.
