Authorities have arrested a fugitive wanted in three Bay Area murders after his case was featured on "America's Most Wanted."
     
Twenty-five-year-old Rafael Campbell was wanted in the fatal shooting of a Berkeley man and the deaths of two others who were struck by the alleged getaway car on May 16.

Two suspects were arrested at the scene, and a third suspect was arrested two weeks later.

Authorities say the four men, members of an Oakland gang, killed Charles Davis to retaliate against Davis' family member. During a police chase, their Cadillac ran a stop sign and struck the car driven by Todd Perea and pedestrian Floyd Ross.

After being featured on a Nov. 7 episode of "America's Most Wanted," Campbell was located in Sacramento and taken into custody Tuesday at an apartment.
