Washington man captured after ‘gruesome’ double-murder of couple, deputies say

Shaun D. Rose, 40, was captured at a gas station in Tacoma, Washington, days after allegedly killing a couple in what investigators described as a "brutal" double-murder.

Investigators named Rose as a suspect in what they described as a "gruesome" and "brutal" double homicide.

Rose was spotted earlier on Sunday driving a white Buick passenger car in Mason County, where deputies there pursued him in a brief chase, officials said. Rose was apparently able to lose the deputies due to his erratic and dangerous driving. 

He ditched the Buick and stole another car in Pierce County before driving to Tacoma, according to investigators. He then abandoned that vehicle and went to a gas station, where Tacoma police arrested him.
