The suspect wanted in connection with the killing of four people and the kidnapping of a baby in Tennessee was taken into custody on Tuesday after a week-long manhunt.

Austin Robert Drummond, 28, was taken into custody in Jackson by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, according to the Jackson, Tennessee, Police Department. According to the Dyer County Sheriff’s Office, Drummond is accused of the July 29 killings of Cortney Rose, Rose’s children Adrianna and Braydon Williams, and Adrianna Williams’ boyfriend James Wilson. Their bodies were found along a road in Lake County, and a baby, the child of Adrianna Williams and Wilson, was left in a car seat in a “random individual’s front yard” in nearby Dyer County. Four other people have also been arrested in connection to the case.

Jackson Police Chief Thom Corley in a press release: “I am pleased to announce the successful capture of Austin Drummond, wanted for the murder of four individuals in Lake County, Tennessee. This marks an important step in restoring safety to our community.” Police later posted a photo Tuesday of Drummond being taken into custody, in which he is seen being held at by his arms and collar by law enforcement officers. A motive for the killings remain under investigation.

The announcement of Drummond’s capture came approximately an hour after Jackson Police posted a warning to social media that Drummond was spotted in the area of Saddlebrook and Bridlepath drives in Jackson, in which they posted: “Please shelter in place immediately. Keep windows and doors locked, remain indoors, and avoid unnecessary travel.” The police then broadcast that related roads were blocked before announcing Drummond’s capture. At the time he was taken into custody, a reward of up to $30,000 was being offered for information leading to Drummond’s arrest.

According to the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, Drummond will face four counts of first-degree murder, one count of aggravated kidnapping, four counts of felon in possession of a firearm and one count of possession of a firearm during the commission of a dangerous felony.
