A deadly shooting at a Bob Evans restaurant in Canton, Ohio, has ended with an arrest after an hours long manhunt.
According to the Daily Mail and local reports, police arrested 54 year old Richard and charged him with aggravated murder in the death of Rebecca, 38, a former girlfriend who worked at the restaurant. The shooting happened on Friday morning.
Authorities say Rebecca saw Richard walk into the restaurant with a gun. Police say she tried to run, and that he opened fire and shot her multiple times. Customers and staff members reportedly hid under tables while others ran outside.
Police say the suspect then fled and was the subject of an 11 hour search. He was considered armed and dangerous. Officers say he was taken into custody around 8:30 that evening after a police dog helped stop him during a foot chase.
Authorities described the case as a domestic incident and said the two had recently broken up. The investigation is ongoing, and Richard is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.
Our thoughts are with Rebecca’s family and everyone affected by this tragedy.
