Waffle House Shooting Suspect Arrested Less Than Mile From Attack

Travis Reinking captured hours after his discarded laptop bag was found by the road.

Travis Reinking, the man accused of killing four people at a Waffle House in Tennessee, has been captured after a day-long manhunt, Nashville police announced. Reinking, 29, was captured less than a mile from the restaurant where he allegedly opened fire on Sunday night with an AR-15 rifle. A local resident called police with a report of seeing a man walking into a wooded area, an official said, and two detectives followed a pathway into the woods from the sighting. One detective drew his weapon after spotting Reinking, according to an official, and ordered him to lay down. The detectives recovered a handgun and flashlight from Reinking’s backpack, the official said. Reinking immediately requested a lawyer, according to a Nashville police spokesperson.
