Denver police have arrested a man in connection with the weekend death of another man near the Glendale city limits.
Quentin Williams, 25, was being held for investigation of first-degree murder in the slaying of Leroy Townsend, 33.
On Saturday, police officers went to an apartment in the 1100 block of South Cherry Street to check the welfare of the man who lived there, police said. They found the victim suffering from trauma, which the department did not describe.
Witnesses told detectives that late Friday or early Saturday they heard an argument at the apartment, police said.

Well looks like another fine member of society will be going to jail.
Wonder what caused this guy to snap and take out his roommate.
Well now he will have plenty of time to figure out what went wrong.
He will meet new and fun people to make friends with.
Well hope he enjoys the prison yard and all the new games he will play.
Like shank shank who's got the shank.
Also the all time favorite who is stuffing crack up their butt.
Well it looks like a good time will be had by all.
