Fargo Homicide Suspect Captured in Nebraska<\/h2>\n

Fargo, North Dakota (trfnews.i234.me<\/a>)<\/strong> \u2014 Fargo Police are investigating a homicide discovered during a welfare check Monday.<\/p>\n

Officers responded around 4:25 p.m. to an apartment complex on 34th Street South.<\/p>\n

The call involved an apartment in the 1800 block, according to police.<\/p>\n

Officers tried several times to contact people inside the apartment.<\/p>\n

They eventually entered the unit and found a person dead inside.<\/p>\n

Police have not publicly identified the victim.<\/p>\n

Death Investigated as Homicide<\/h2>\n

Investigators secured the apartment and began collecting evidence.<\/p>\n

Police said early findings indicate the victim died from homicidal violence.<\/p>\n

Investigators also believe the victim and the suspect knew each other.<\/p>\n

The exact cause of death remains under investigation.<\/p>\n

Police are also working to establish the victim’s final known contacts.<\/p>\n

Detectives are trying to build a timeline leading to the death.<\/p>\n

Brandon George Detained in Nebraska<\/h2>\n

Fargo Police identified the suspect as 42-year-old Brandon Cletus George.<\/p>\n

George was located in Nebraska on Tuesday morning.<\/p>\n

The Nebraska State Patrol<\/a> said authorities pursued a Toyota Camry connected to the investigation.<\/p>\n

The pursuit moved onto Interstate 80 and continued toward the Lincoln area.<\/p>\n

State Patrol officials said the vehicle reached speeds exceeding 100 mph.<\/p>\n

Troopers eventually used stop sticks before the vehicle exited near Ashland.<\/p>\n

George was taken into custody shortly after 9:10 a.m.<\/p>\n

He was booked into the Lancaster County Jail on separate Nebraska allegations.<\/p>\n

Those allegations include reckless driving, fleeing arrest and terroristic threats.<\/p>\n
