Nicholas Sheley, the 28-year-old man suspected of killing eight people in two states, has been captured by authorities after he was spotted walking through a parking lot in Granite City, Illinois Tuesday night.
Sheley was arrested for the murder of an elderly man in Whiteside County, Illinois but is believed to have ties to at least seven other murders over the past several days.
Police in Galesburg, Illinois had issued an arrest warrant for Sheley tying him to the murder of a 65-year-old man and he is believed to be responsible for the deaths of four people, including a child, who were discovered in a home in Rock Falls, Illinois.
The killing of a couple in Festus, Missouri has also been attributed to Sheley.
At the time of the arrest Sheley was unarmed and did not resist arrest. He had been considered armed and extremely dangerous when police issued a $25,000 reward for information leading to his arrest.
He is scheduled to appear in a Granite City court on Wednesday.
