Madisonville, TN (WOKI) A two-hour manhunt Monday morning in Madisonville results in the apprehension of a known fugitive.
Madisonville Police Department officials report Dillon Honeycutt, a known fugitive with multiple active arrest warrants, was taken into custody Monday afternoon after fleeing from a Monroe County Sheriff’s Office Detective who spotted him in a neighborhood near downtown Madisonville.
Officials say Madisonville Primary School was put on a soft lockdown during the manhunt for Honeycutt “out of an abundance of caution.” Honeycutt was eventually found hiding in the backseat of a car.
He was arrested and is being held, without bond, at the Monroe County Justice Center.
