The former U.S. Army soldier accused of gunning down four people at a Montana bar has been captured following a weeklong manhunt.

A U.S. Army veteran accused of fatally shooting four people at a bar in the small Montana town of Anaconda earlier this month has been caught after a week-long manhunt, Governor Greg Gianforte said on Friday.

A week after four people were killed in a bar, authorities in Anaconda, Montana, advise residents to get on with their lives, but some are finding that difficult.

A manhunt is intensifying for the former U.S. Army soldier who has been on the run for days after allegedly gunning down four people at a Montana bar.

The manhunt is focused on the wilderness area outside Anaconda, which local outdoor experts describe as particularly difficult to navigate.

Before Michael Paul Brown was captured Friday, time stood still for the locals of a small Montana town after authorities say the Army veteran shot dead four bar patrons and went into hiding.

After a weeklong search, authorities say they have captured a man suspected in a shooting at a Montana bar that left four people dead and prompted a lockdown of a neighborhood.
