Authorities in Dekalb County Georgia reported that a man wanted for the murder of his wife three weeks ago has been captured.
Preston Young, 38, was wanted for strangling 45-year-old Sharon Sylvester Young at their home in Hampton, Georgia. He was found camping out in some woods behind a McDonald’s Restaurant.
Authorities found out about the murder after Young’s three-year-old granddaughter pressed the OnStar button in the victim’s vehicle. When they arrived on the scene, they found Sharon Sylvester Young dead inside the home.
Authorities had first tracked Preston Young to Tampa, where he and Sharon had lived before moving to Georgia.
A family member told authorities he knew the couple was having problems, but no one thought this would happen.
A memorial service was held for Sharon Young last Saturday in Tampa where she was laid to rest.
