TULSA -- A man accused of murder in Dallas was arrested in Tulsa Wednesday morning.

Tulsa Police say 18-year-old Latwon Goff was arrested following several armed robberies in Tulsa.

Police say Goff shot and killed a person during a robbery in Dallas in February.

Police say Goff is suspected of robbing a midtown Tulsa Daylight Donuts earlier in the day Wednesday.

Goff allegedly pointed a gun at a customer's child inside the donut shop before leaping over the counter and taking money from the cash register.

Goff is also accused of robbing a Subway near 58th and Lewis.

Police said witnesses spotted the suspect’s vehicle and police were able to track it down. A short police chase ensued until Goff’s car blew out its engine near Riverside. Police took him into custody.

According to court documents, Goff had multiple previous robbery convictions as a youthful offender in Tulsa.

However, the Tulsa County District Attorney’s office said a judge overturned them, against prosecutors strenuous objections.

He was allowed to walk free, and now is accused of committing the crimes in Dallas and Tulsa.
