During the course of the investigation, detectives received images and videos of the suspects. One of the suspects was identified as Andre Brown, and they obtained warrants for his arrest.

At around 1 a.m. on Friday, February 15, deputies made contact with Brown on a traffic stop, and he was taken into custody.
