NASHVILLE, Tenn. – A suspect was shot by law enforcement as he was taken into custody Saturday night after five people were found dead in a rural Tennessee county, authorities say.

Michael Cummins, 25, was taken to a local hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. No officers were injured.

A "massive" manhunt for Cummins commenced after four homicide victims were found at a home in Sumner County and one other at another home, according to the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation

A sixth, injured victim was found at the first scene, according to the TBI.

The agency said there was reason to believe the two scenes were related and named Cummins as a suspect in the killings.

He was considered armed and dangerous, and law enforcement took him into custody at 10 p.m. after searching for him in the woods near the crime scenes.

Cummins has not been charged with a crime.

At a news conference Saturday night, TBI spokesman Josh DeVine said he could not provide any information about the victims.

The TBI is working to identify a motive and Cummins’ relationships with the victims.

Forensic scientists with the TBI were processing the crime scenes Saturday night, and roads to the area were blocked off.

The TBI was notified of the homicides about 5:30 p.m. after a family member called 911, DeVine said.

The scene was in a rural area of northwest Sumner County, just miles from the Kentucky state line.

DeVine emphasized the rural, wooded area surrounding the crime scene could make the search difficult. "There would potentially plenty of places for (Cummins) to ... hide for the night," he said.

More than 100 law enforcement officers were involved in the search for Cummins on Saturday night. Beyond the TBI, the Tennessee Highway Patrol and Sumner County authorities participated in the search.

The TBI used an airplane to locate Cummins in a creek bed roughly a mile from the crime scenes. More than a dozen officers from Sumner County’s joint SWAT Team responded to the location.

Officers on the ground said Cummins produced multiple weapons, according to DeVine, and at least one officer fired and struck Cummins at least once.

The TBI is now investigating the shooting of Cummins as well as the homicides. DeVine did not yet know which agencies were involved in the shooting.
