Police say officers Wednesday spotted Wolf exiting a car and tried to question him. Officers found a large knife in the car along with scratches and metal shavings on the ignition.

After Wolf’s arrest on suspicion of car theft, robbery detectives linked him to a shooting Sunday at Milano’s Pizza on west 36th Avenue.

Employees attempted to detain a man whom they said tried to take money from a cash register. The employees stopped when the man fired a shot in their direction.
