New Orleans murder suspect B.J. Brown captured in Tennessee, officials say – WAFB

BJ Brown shot and killed a woman at the Iberville Housing Development on Bienville Street. In New Orleans Monday.

A cell phone video of the killing was captured and widely shared on social media.

The woman was shot multiple times and transported to a hospital where she later died, police say.

Haunting video of the killing was captured from a nearby apartment window and posted to social media. In the video, a man believed to be Brown, armed with an AR-15 rifle, walks up to a female victim, who is already shot and lying nearly motionless in a parking lot, and fires two more rounds into her body execution-style.

Police say that Brown and the victim Casandra Jones used to date. Police records show that the mother of two had considered a restraining order against her ex.

On the run, Brown shot at a police officer while he was pulled over for a traffic stop in Erin, Tennessee. The officer returned fire and Brown fled into a heavily wooded area on foot.

With tactical teams, helicopters, canines and multiple departments stepping in they were able to apprehend Brown without further violence.
