A third suspect has been arrested in connection with the murder of 20-year-old, Quincy Wyatt, who disappeared on Dec. 10. His body was later found burned in a field with gunshot wounds near 8100 Mayforge Drive in Dallas. 

Alberto Julian Lopez, 19, was arrested Friday on a capital murder charge after witnesses told police he may have been the shooter, according to arrest records. 

Details in the arrest records describe two suspects wearing ski masks forcing Wyatt into the trunk of a car at gunpoint. The witness said Lopez is the person who shot him once before closing the trunk and driving away. 

Lopez confessed to this claim, arrest records show.
