Indiana police released dramatic bodycam footage on Tuesday of the moment fugitive Casey White was captured.

The police also released footage of officers inspecting an abandoned Ford F-150 at an Evansville car wash and another video of first responders rendering aid to Vicky White.

The nationwide manhunt for a double murder suspect and the correctional officer who helped him escape ended with car chase, a crash, and a fatality on Monday. Alabama police received a tip on Sunday — one of hundreds — that ultimately proved fruitful and led to a confrontation with escaped inmate Casey White and Vicky White, the corrections officer.

During a press conference on Tuesday, police revealed that they found a trove of weapons inside the couple’s car, as well as $29,000 in cash. According to officials, the couple planned to have a shootout with police, but were stopped before they could bring their plan to fruition.

A “short” police chase ensued, according to Lauderdale County, Alabama, Sheriff Rick Singleton, which ended when a US Marshal smashed into the pair’s Cadillac. After the crash, Mr White was apprehended, while Ms White died following a reportedly self-inflicted gunshot.

Mr Singleton said no officers fired a shot during the car chase, and that Mr White showed “no remorse” over Ms White’s death.
