According to Lehigh County District Attorney Jim Martin, a Texas resident has been charged in the death of man who was fatally shot last month in the parking lot of the apartment complex where he lived in Lower Macungie Township.

Alexander Adrian Brown, 25, of Houston, Texas, was charged by Pennsylvania State Police Oct. 29, in the death of former Germansville resident Gary A. Wragg, 59, of 1037G Village Round.

Wragg formerly lived along Memorial Road, Germansville.

Brown is in Harris County Jail, where he is being held on separate charges of kidnapping and robbery unrelated to this case, Lehigh County District Attorney Jim Martin said.

Those cases, which resulted from recent arrests, are pending in Texas. Brown will be extradited to Pennsylvania following disposition of those cases, Martin said.

An affidavit of probable cause filed by Pa. State Police Fogelsville Criminal Investigation Unit, alleges around 11:44 p.m. Oct. 4, state police received a report of several gunshots fired in the rear parking lot area of the Meadowyck Condominiums on Village Round.

Troopers responding to the scene saw a man lying face down on the ground. Wragg was pronounced dead by a Lehigh County deputy coroner.

State police processed the scene and recovered nine spent .40-caliber casings in the immediate area.

During an autopsy, four .40-caliber projectiles were recovered from Wragg's body. The cause of death was determined to be multiple gunshot wounds. The manner of death was ruled homicide.

The State Police Ballistics Laboratory examined the projectiles and determined they may have come from two models of Smith and Wesson handguns, one of which was identified as a Smith and Wesson Model SD 40VE.

State police interviewed a neighbor who was outside when she heard voices and saw two people talking to each other near the Wragg's vehicle.

The witness said she saw the man, now identified as Wragg, walk away from the other person, who followed him and extend his right arm toward Wragg's back.

The witness, who saw flashes and heard gunshots, said the man continued to shoot Wragg as he yelled for help.

She gave state police a description of the shooter and said he fled in a black SUV. Another resident of the complex told state police she heard multiple gunshots and saw a Nissan Xterra leaving the complex.

State police determined a tan Xterra belonging to Brown's former girlfriend, who lives in Texas, was used when Brown allegedly abducted her in September and drove to New York. State police learned Brown allegedly had spray painted the vehicle black and the vehicle had been seen in the parking lot of the Lower Macungie Township complex the day of the shooting.

When Brown was arrested in Houston on Oct. 12, he allegedly was driving an Xterra partially spray painted orange and black and had a license plate stolen from a vehicle in New Jersey.

Houston Police Department officers searched the vehicle and found a .40-caliber Smith and Wesson handgun Model SD 40VE.

The handgun was test fired and the projectiles were analyzed by the Pa. State Police Ballistics Laboratory. The lab determined the projectiles used in the test firing by Texas authorities matched the projectiles recovered from the body of Wragg.

When Pa. State Police interviewed Brown in Harris County, he allegedly admitted shooting a white male numerous times in the Meadowyck parking lot.
