DeWitt police have made an arrest in a homicide from December.

It happened at the Midler Meadows Mobile Home Park.     

Lyle “Budda” Lyons, 54, was found dead by a neighbor on December 14 after his family said they hadn't heard from him. He had multiple stab wounds.

Phone records and interviews led police to 37-year-old Lester Shaffer and his girlfriend, 30-year-old Ashley Rodriguez, who both also live in the mobile home park.

They believed the pair was trying to sell drugs in the area at the time of Lyons death, and that those items were stolen from the victim's home.

Shaffer faces several charges including first and second-degree murder, robbery and possession and sale of a controlled substance.

Rodriguez is charged with hindering prosecution, tampering with physical evidence, and drug possession and sale.
