PHILADELPHIA (Reuters) - A Pennsylvania teenager accused of killing his girlfriend's parents after a dispute about the underage girl's curfew and then fleeing with her was captured in Indiana on Monday, police said.
David Ludwig, 18, was arrested in Belleville, Indiana, after crashing his car following a police pursuit, a police spokeswoman said.
Ludwig had fled from Lititz, Pennsylvania, early on Sunday with his girlfriend Kara Beth Borden, 14, after allegedly shooting dead Borden's parents -- Michael and Cathryn Lee Borden, both 50.
The two were seen at a central Pennsylvania truck stop earlier on Monday but were not caught, police said.
Ludwig and Borden stayed out all night Saturday and were confronted by her father early Sunday. After a long argument, Ludwig is said to have shot both parents with a single bullet to the head, and then fled with Borden.
Two siblings survived the attack and raised the alarm, police said.
It was unclear whether Ludwig abducted Borden or whether she willingly fled the scene with him. The girl was in police custody on Monday.
