Authorities have arrested a suspect in connection with the death investigations of three women whose bodies were found Wednesday in Wayne County, Utah, a neighboring sheriff’s office said Thursday.
“We have received confirmation that a suspect in the Wayne County homicides was captured early this morning,” the Sevier County Sheriff’s Office said. “The suspect is in law enforcement custody.”
The grisly discoveries of the bodies spurred a multi-county manhunt, prompting schools to shut down and businesses to shutter while an unknown killer was on the loose.
