The suspect police believe murdered four University of Idaho students in November, was identified through a public DNA database, according to a recent report.
Area police and the FBI located the 28-year-old Bryan Christopher Kohberger in Pennsylvania through his vehicle. Kohberger was arrested Friday (Dec 31) for the murders of roommates Kaylee Goncalves, 21; Madison Mogen, 21, and Xana Kernodle, 20, as well as Kernodle’s boyfriend, Ethan Chapin, 20.

Details on the crime, such as a motive, will not be revealed until the suspect is back in Idaho.
