A suspect has been arrested in the deaths of two unnamed women and a Yell Co. Sheriff's Deputy.
Lt. Kevin Mainhart was performing a traffic stop on State Highway 27 this morning, was shot, and later died from his injuries. He was on his way to a disturbance call on Gum Springs Road where police found two female bodies outside the home.
Authorities believe that all three deaths were at the hands of 32 year old James Michael Bowden.
