Police have captured quadruple murder suspect Austin Drummond.

The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation reported that police located Drummond in Jackson, Tennessee, on Tuesday morning, shortly after he was seen carrying a rifle in security footage.

“We’ll provide more details soon, but a hearty thanks to the public for staying vigilant these past few days,” TBI announced Tuesday.

As previously detailed by CrimeOnline, Drummond is facing charges for four counts of first-degree murder, kidnapping, and other related offenses, per a TBI news release.

The charges came after police discovered four bodies on July 29, along Carrington Road in Tiptonville.

The victims in the homicide have been identified by TBI as 15-year-old Braydon Williams, 21-year-old James Matthew Wilson, 20-year-old Adrianna Williams, and 38-year-old Cortney Rose.

Investigators said the victims were related to a 7-month-old girl found in a car seat in a front yard in Tigrett earlier in the day.

Wilson and Adrianna Williams were the baby’s parents, Rose was Williams’ mother, and the teen was Williams’ brother.

Dyer County deputies identified the child and announced efforts to locate the parents and Rose. Hours later, the bodies were found, and Drummond had a warrant issued for his arrest.
