BRISTOL, Tenn. -- Authorities say three people have died and another was injured in a shooting at an apartment building in Bristol, Tenn.
Police say the 26-year-old suspect, Rusty L. Rumley, was captured soon after the shooting that happened at noon today.
Police spokeswoman Stephanie Hoskins says the shooting occurred during a domestic dispute at Edgemont Towers.
She says Rumley was captured after he crashed his car about 20 miles south of Bristol. She couldn't provide other details of his capture.
Details on the victims weren't immediately available.

A man wanted for killing four people in Bristol has killed himself in Carter County, officials have confirmed.
Rusty Rumley was being pursued into the Cripple Creek community of Carter County following the 10:41 a.m. shootings in downtown Bristol.
Bristol Police Chief Blaine Wade initially reported that three people were killed and one person was seriously injured. That person was taken to Bristol Regional Medical Center's emergency room for treatment and later died, officials reported.
The victims had not been identified.
Funny how this apparent criminal murders several people, runs and for some reason DOES NOT shoot back at the cops (well, we don’t know that yet.... but, he’s alive so one has to assume he either didn’t have a gun, or didn’t point it at them or he’d be dead).
Yet a guy in another state is being held on murder charges when cops kick in his door and he kills a cop... hmmmm
And yet people are making claims about the guy defending him home being a criminal? I’m sooooooo confused.
Ping
I know this is serious, but I couldn't help thinking of the classic Tonight Show sketch with Johnny, Jack Webb and the "clean copper clappers."
Prayers for the victims. RIP.
The guy could just have driven across the street into Virginia and been in trouble with the Feds for crossing the state line...
