The man suspected of killing a couple at a hotel on the Strip in Las Vegas has been arrested, the Las Vegas Metro Police Department said.

The Los Angeles Fugitive Squad took 31-year-old Julius Trotter into custody in the FBI Los Angeles area after a vehicle pursuit early Thursday morning.


Trotter has been on the run since allegedly committing a double murder on June 1.

According to police, two people were stabbed to death in their room.

Police think the incident may have stemmed from a robbery.

Metro Police made the disturbing find after the couple failed to show up for a tour of the Grand Canyon.

Police say they were here as part of a tour group with multiple people from Los Angeles.
