Authorities in Kentucky called off the manhunt for the suspect they believe was responsible for a mass shooting on a remote stretch of highway after they located a body deep in the woods—with the help of a pair of YouTubers.

On Sept. 7, a gunman opened fire on cars driving down I-75 in Laurel County, Kentucky. The terrifying attack left five people seriously injured, including one person who was shot in the face.

An affidavit later obtained by WHAS 11 revealed that Couch purchased an AR-15 style rifle and 1,000 rounds of ammunition the same day as the attack.
