UGA Manhunt Ends in Murder-Suicide
(AP/WSB Radio) Athens-Clarke police are investigating a murder-suicide that started with a woman's body found in a parked car about a mile from the University of Georgia campus.
The shooting Thursday afternoon prompted an alert at the campus telling students and staff to avoid the university's golf course, where the shooter had been spotted.
Police spokesman Capt. Clarence Holeman tells WSB 25-year-old Michael Wise lived in the area. He was pulled over in Oglethorpe County, about ten miles away.
"He was stopped by one of their deputies. He was in the presence of another person that was driving the car. The suspect was actually a passenger. When they got stopped, that's when he took his life in front of deputies," said Holeman.
Holeman says they were called about 2 o'clock this afternoon about the first shooting. Wise apparently called his brother and told them he had just shot and killed someone.
"We had to scour some parking lots. We finally found the victim in her vehicle. She had been shot twice," said Holeman.
The victim has been identified as 20-year-old Kendra Borders. She and Michael Wise have three children together. The two were not married.
The case has been ruled a murder-suicide.
Athens-Clarke County Police are questioning the driver in Wise's car.
