JANESVILLE, Wis. (WIFR) - A fugitive out of Pennsylvania was arrested in Janesville on Monday.

Darelle Coffey has a criminal history that includes attempted homicide, aggravated assault, reckless endangerment, burglary, stalking and illegally possessing a firearm.

Janesville Police were notified Thursday that Coffey was staying at the Motel 6 in Janesville. He was seen coming and going from the motel on Sunday, so police obtained a search warrant and returned with a SWAT team.
