A man wanted in a murder case from nearly 20 years ago has been extradited to Westchester County.
Michael "Gifton" Cousins arrived at the Westchester County Airport in Harrison, just after 7 p.m. Friday.
Investigators say they caught Cousins in Jamaica.
Pelham police accuse the 48-year-old of fatally stabbing Jason Campbell at the Pelham Country Club back in 1996.
Both men were caddies at the club.
Cousins will spend the weekend at the county jail, and is expected to be arraigned on murder charges Monday.
