Police have arrested a 29-year-old Los Angeles man on suspicion of fatally shooting Jacqueline Avant, the wife of legendary music executive Clarence Avant, after he shot himself in the foot during another home burglary.
Police caught Maynor at the site of another home burglary in Hollywood Hills where he had shot himself in his foot with what is thought to be the same AR-15 he used to kill Avant.
Maynor has an extensive criminal record dating back to 2013 and has served time for robbery and grand theft, TMZ reported.
Maynor was on parole at the time of the alleged homicide for a domestic violence case.
He was arrested by LAPD officers and taken to a hospital where he remains in custody.
Police say Maynor is currently their only suspect and his motive for the alleged homicide remains under investigation.
The 81-year-old philanthropist whose daughter Nicole is married to Ted Sarandos, Netflix co-CEO and chief content officer, was shot dead early Wednesday morning in her $7 million Beverly Hills mansion despite a security guard being on the property.
Police said Clarence and a security guard were home at the time of the attack but not harmed.
Neighbors of the Avants were so worried by the recent rise in burglaries in the neighborhood that they hired armed guards a week before the music executive's wife was killed.
Residents of Trousdale Estate in Beverly Hills told TMZ that just last week, several neighbors got together and hired a private security firm in response to a recent spike in home and car burglaries in the area.
The neighbors were so afraid, they say they pooled money and hired a security company, but they had not started patrols yet before Wednesday's tragic shooting.

Perp is a victim of racial injustice, obviously. White supremacy is why be shot himself in the foot. No bail, let him go. And any prosecution is simply racist. Nothing to see here. /s

Of course he was.
Husband home at the time-uninjured? Does he have a girlfriend?
If this is the guy that did it, I hope some justice is handed
out that won’t take decades to come to fruition.
Do it in the public square.
Use four horses and four ropes.
Then let the public pee on him until dead.
Sorry to all you citizens that were afraid for your lives, and rightfully so, but there was slavery so its just the way it has to be now. Its not personal. Black lives matter y’all
This guy was caught in another home after shooting himself in
the foot.
That doesn’t sound like a guy for hire.
It sounds like a guy who thinks other people’s belongings and
lives belong to him.
Another dindoo nuffin with an extensive rap sheet. Color me shocked.
In other words, the perfect guy to hire for a hit.
The homicide is not alleged. That is a determined fact. She was murdered. A felon out on parole killing an innocent victim seems to be the norm where progressives govern.
Graduate of the Baldwin school of gun safety.
This must be fake news. Everybody knows that AR-15s are banned in California.
I wonder if Clarence or his wife ever voted Democrat?
RARE. OH, sorry that was CONvid.
Just as soon as I read the suspected shooter’s name (Aariel Mayno), I know darn good and well that we were looking at another white supremacist in blackface shooting poor ghetto bound black folks.
Black lives really don’t matter
Out on parole in the jurisdiction of a Soros puppet-DA is "safe and effective".
