Man wanted in N.C. murder arrested in Colorado
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) — A man wanted in a North Carolina murder is behind bars after being arrested at a hotel in Colorado Springs.
Police say 32-year-old Bogdan Rudenko surrendered peacefully Friday at a Howard Johnson’s hotel after several hours of negotiations.
He is suspected in a Dec. 20 slaying in Stallings, N.C. Stallings police chief Larke Plyler told The Gazette of Colorado Springs that a motive hasn’t been established.
Police couldn’t confirm whether Rudenko is the minor league hockey player of the same name and age who last played for the defunct Twin City Cyclones in Winston-Salem, N.C. in the 2008-9 season. The hockey player was known for his fighting skills and jail records show Rudenko has several scars from sports injuries and surgeries.
