Metropolitan Nashville Police announced suspect Travis Reinking was apprehended–fully clothed after reported to have been naked except for a jacket while leaving the Waffle House–in a wooded area not far from his apartment complex, according to the Associated Press.

Reinking, described as a white man with brown hair, opened fire with an AR-15 in the Waffle House parking lot and then stormed the restaurant shortly after 3 a.m. Sunday, police say. Four people were killed and four others were injured before a quick-thinking customer wrestled the assault weapon away, preventing more bloodshed. Reinking then disappeared, police said.

Police say about 20 people were in the Waffle House at the time of the shootings. They included people of different races and ethnicities, but the four people killed were minorities_three black and one Hispanic.
