Two suspects were in custody Thursday evening, while two more were still at large after a local gun store was robbed earlier this week.
Officers gathered enough information to obtain an arrest warrant for four suspects, including Dequan Deshawn Willard, 20; Jacob Leslie Pereida, 18; Jonah Isiah Garza, 20; and Jamie Shakur Garcia, 18, according to a news release from the Lubbock Police Department.
Dr. Thomas Michael Dixon returns to court Monday for another shot at agruing for his innocence.
A 12-member jury with two alternates will be sworn in to hear testimony in Dixon's second capital murder trial.
Dixon, an Amarillo plastic surgeon, is accused of hiring David Neal Shepard in July 2012 to kill Dr. Joseph Sonnier III in his home in the 4600 block of 22nd Street.
Sonnier, the chief pathologist for Covenant Medical Center, was dating Dixon's former girlfriend, Richelle Shetina.

The Lubbock Sheriff’s Office is investigating two homicides after a body was found in a burning car Halloween night and human remains were found in a small body of water on Sunday.
The homicides appear to be unrelated, but neither victim had been identified as of Sunday evening, according to a news release from LSO.
A few minutes before midnight, at 11:56 p.m. Saturday, the LSO was notified of a vehicle on fire on East 19th Street, about 1.5 miles east of Loop 289 in East Lubbock.
