A huge sense of relief now that a man wanted for murder is in custody in southern Ontario.
Ontario Provincial Police says they arrested Eric Wildman early Friday morning around 5:30 outside a home near Belleville.
He’s wanted for the murder of Clifford Joseph.
The RCMP in Manitoba conducted an extensive search for the suspect Wednesday night and Thursday in the Whiteshell area, after his 2020 Chevy Equinox was confirmed heading east.
The RCMP says more details will be released later Friday.
At approx. 5:30 am (Central) Eric Wildman was taken into custody by the @OPP_News @ a residence just outside the City of Belleville, ON. #rcmpmb thanks the media & the public for their support & assistance throughout the search.
