PINEDALE, Wyo. (AP) One of two men accused of luring a woman and her four teenage daughters to a Utah house and tying them up in the basement surrendered to authorities in western Wyoming, while the manhunt for his son intensified.
Flint Wayne Harrison, 51, was arrested early Saturday at the Sublette County Sheriff's Office and immediately began helping authorities seek his son Dereck James "DJ" Harrison, 22, who investigators believe is camping in the forested back country of Half Moon Lake. He is armed with two knives, possibly a rifle and a shotgun with high-capacity magazines, the sheriff's office said.
Authorities urged campers to leave the area and residents to stay inside their homes. The woman and her daughters are recovering after the Tuesday attack in Centerville, Utah.
The father and son had been using methamphetamine heavily over several days and falsely believed the woman had reported them to authorities, police said.
