Fugitive Captured

If you saw any of the emergency vehicles or saw and heard all the helicopters overhead in Snellville this afternoon, here is what was going on...

"SNELLVILLE, Ga. -- An armed robbery suspect who led
United States Marshals and Gwinnett Sheriff's deputies
on a car and foot chase Wednesday has been captured in
the back yard of a home near Snellville.

The man could be seen sprawled face down on the ground
and appeared to be wounded in the arm.

Law enforcement officials established a perimeter along
Athens Highway [Hwy 78] near Cooper Road near Snellville to
search for the suspect after he escaped the custody
of an officer during a traffic stop."
