Tulsa Police have made an arrest in connection with the murder of a Tulsa couple. Robert Fellows has been taken into custody.

Fellows is accused of killing Ples and Shelly Vann inside their East 50th Place North home in February. Detectives believe the couple's sons Quantee and Lawrence Tennyson are gang members and the Vann's were ordered in retaliation.

Police have since cracked down on gangs and they say more arrests are imminent. Tulsa Police detective Mike Huff: "We're making progress everyday, so I think what it shows is that the house of cards is kind of tumbling a bit, we've got a lot more work to do and can't rest now."

The arrest comes just two days after the capture of Paul "Tom Tom" Summers, a suspect in another gang-related murder. Police tracked Summers to Bakersfield, California.
