Waffle House Shooting Suspect Taken Into Custody

BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- Police say the man accused of opening fire at a Nashville area Waffle House, killing four people and injuring several others, has been taken into custody.

Authorities were searching for the 29-year-old suspect, Travis Reinking, who they said drove to the busy restaurant and killed two people in the parking lot before entering and continuing to fire. When his AR-15 rifle either jammed or the clip was empty, a customer disarmed him in a scuffle.

Reinking was arrested in a wooded area.
