Murder suspect

captured

A suspect wanted in a Fairburn murder was captured Monday night.

Thomas Bush Jr., 33, of College Park was arrested Monday evening after a

phone tip led Fairburn Police to his whereabouts, said Fairburn Polic Captain.

H. E. Miller. Bush, who had been sought in the June 22 fatal shooting of

Christian Underwood, is being held in the Fulton County Jail and has been

charged with felony murder.

Underwood, age 25, who had lived in the Four Seasons community in Fayette

County picked up Bush in Fairburn's troubled Lightning District, apparently

to buy drugs, police said. Bush got into Underwood's car and shot him

as he drove away, officials added

Police believe that Underwood had flashed a large amount of cash that may

have led to Bush's robbery and shooting of the young man. Bush fled

the scene and has been in hiding for nearly two weeks.
