Broderick was taken into custody after officials received multiple 911 calls around 7 a.m. a.m. about a man walking on Old Kimbro Road near U.S. 290 just outside Manor.
Officials sent a car by the area to confirm Broderick s identity. Manor police officers and Travis County deputies arrested Broderick without incident. He was armed with a loaded pistol, Manor police said.
Broderick is the suspect in a triple homicide that started as what police have described as a domestic violence incident. Broderick was arrested on a warrant for capital murder.
Travis County District Attorney José Garza said he will request Broderick be held without bail, which Texas law allows under limited circumstances.

Utah State University undergraduates met last month with Utah legislators to share research projects they’ve completed this year. Our meetings with them illustrated the critical ways these types of educational opportunities matter to our state.
These USU students included moms, an active-duty National Guard member, a husband/wife research team, and distance learners. Some of those students grew up here, and others came from out of state specifically to get undergraduate research opportunities.
They were born two months apart in the late 1970s, went on to pursue the same area of medicine and eventually wound up in the same city at the same time.
But before a seemingly random encounter last week, the two pediatricians found dead after a hostage standoff Tuesday in Central Austin did not appear to know each other, nor did the trajectory of their lives appear to be headed in the same direction.
Looking for work after recently arriving in Austin from California, Dr. Bharat Narumanchi walked into the offices of the Children s Medical Group last Friday and inquired about an unpaid administrative job, according to witnesses and police statements. He spoke to staff members about a recent diagnosis for Stage 4 metastatic cancer and his desire to volunteer in the final three to four months doctors had given him, according to a staff member.
