A man wanted for attempted murder and burglary out of Semmes, Alabama, was taken into custody without incident Saturday night at a Mississippi restaurant. Ronald Graham was arrested at Newk’s Eatery in Magee after employees reported a suspicious person making “strange statements” near the dumpsters.

Magee Police Department officers responded to the Newk’s at approximately 9:37 p.m. on June 15. Upon speaking with Graham, it was discovered he was the subject of active felony warrants for attempted murder, first-degree domestic violence, and first-degree burglary. Semmes authorities had previously issued a warning, stating Graham was considered armed and dangerous and his whereabouts were unknown.

The charges against Graham stem from an incident in Semmes, Alabama, where a woman was shot on Hi Wood Circle. Authorities reported the bullet grazed the woman’s head, and she is expected to recover.
