Suspect Arrested in Murders of 4 University of Idaho Students

MOSCOW, Idaho — Authorities have arrested a suspect in the Nov. 13 murders of four University of Idaho students, a high-ranking law enforcement source told Fox News Digital.

Bryan Christopher Kohberger, 28, was taken into custody by local police and the FBI at 3 a.m. in Scranton, Pennsylvania, the law enforcement source said Friday.

Kohberger is being held for extradition in Monroe County Court for first-degree murder issued by the Moscow Police Department and the Latah County Prosecutor's Office in connection to the slayings of Ethan Chapin, 20; Xana Kernodle, 20; Kaylee Goncalves, 21; and Madison Mogen, 21.

The suspect is a graduate student at Washington State University in Pullman, Washington, according to the college's website. Pullman is a 15-minute drive from the rental home where the four students were stabbed to death.

It will be interesting to see what exactly led the police to him.

[mousetreehouse]

Ted Bundy was a law student in Seattle and Salt Lake City, areas where many of his victims turned up.

[Gary-ljpi]

The guy has not been proven guilty .. Yet ..

[rockstarofredondo]

Glad to see you covering this. Wonder if he has any connection to the unsolved late-night stabbings in Silverton, OR or Washougal, WA.

[lisashiela]

Facial recognition toll booths along with cell phone tracking down to the inch will get you every time, just ask Chad Daybell.

I don't understand how someone can mercilessly take someone else's life let alone four souls. May justice prevail. I hope there is nothing beyond a reasonable doubt so those families can at least have closure. What a senseless tragedy.

[walterjohnson]

Wow, that's a shocker. That would not have been on my profile list although the car fits the profile.

[imnotbob]

Reminds me of Brendt Allen Christensen. Be interesting to see what relationship - if any - he had with these kids.

[samanthataylor]

Thank you for this Sean. Nice, clear, succinct.

[richarddavenport]

Once this is over I would demolish the home. No one should have to live in it!

[mackthnife]

Pretty wierd when you compare his profile and looks to Ted Bundy.

[rwboa]

I'm surprised of where he was hiding out....and it is WAY TOO CLOSE FOR COMFORT for me. I live outside of Philadelphia (near the airport) and Scranton is only 2¾-hour drive north of where I live.

[nothingmuch]

The towns are about 10 miles apart and they were all students.

[Scorch]

This suspect's driveway doesn't go all the way out to the street.

[BlueDingo]

Someone online said Maddie bullied his sister Hanna who later committed suicide.I have no idea if it’s true or not.

[jeffreyharnden]

This is the type of crime that my former highschool mates would committ but no body believed me i wouldn't have been surprised if any of them actually committed this act . Then I can tell everybody I told you so

[diggingwithdavid]

People are throwing around who did it without knowing the facts or all the evidence.

[montgomeryfitzpatrick]

I live an hour west of a Pullman/Moscow. Glad guy went the other direction

[brakerbraker]

NOTHING about this incidents makes any sense including the arrest of a Timothy McVeigh lookalike.

[jrt]

I'll rent it if I could afford it and it's not some kind of tourist attraction.
