A person of interest in the murder and dismemberment of four Oklahoma friends was arrested Tuesday on an unrelated charge, police said.
The search for the four men who vanished after taking off together on their bicycles came to a grisly end when their body parts were discovered in a river over the weekend, police officials said.
The person of interest, Joe Kennedy, 67, was pulled over in a stolen vehicle in Daytona Beach Shores, Fla. He had been sought by police after the victims — Mark Chastain, 32; Billy Chastain, 30; Mike Sparks, 32; and Alex Stevens, 29 — turned up riddled with bullets and their bodies dismembered after having been reported missing by family members to the Okmulgee Police Department last week. They were last seen alive leaving Billy Chastain’s house on bicycles pulling trailers on Oct. 9 around 8 p.m.
