The Hinds County Sheriff’s Office of Mississippi confirmed that Jerry Raynes, 52, was taken into custody in Spring Valley, Texas – about 10 miles west of Houston.
The announcement from Hinds County Sheriff Tyree Jones, came a day after Raynes was caught on surveillance footage at a Spring Valley service station.
Jones said Raynes is facing extradition back to Mississippi and an investigation is still ongoing. The U.S. Marshals Service, the Harris County Sheriff’s Office, and Spring Valley Police Department assisted with Raynes’ capture.
