THE HAGUE, Netherlands — A man suspected in the weekend killing of former Argentina rugby player Federico Martin Aramburu was arrested early Wednesday in Hungary, European Union judicial cooperation agency Eurojust said. Paris prosecutors opened a murder investigation after Aramburu, who made 22 international appearances for Argentina during his career, was fatally shot in Paris on Saturday on Boulevard Saint-Germain, a main access on Paris’ Left Bank. Eurojust said one of the suspects had fled to Hungary and was heading for Ukraine when he was detained by border police acting on a search warrant issued by French law enforcement authorities. The French judicial official confirmed the man’s identity was Loik Le Priol, known for his ties to banned extremist group GUD, which is known for violence.
