After a brief manhunt, the Greencastle Police and Putnam County Sheriff's Department arrested a Brazil man, who allegedly murdered someone last May and recently shot another individual in Greencastle recently.

Police arrested Jon Luke Benjamin McGuff, of Reelsville, Wednesday afternoon in Greencastle, according to Greencastle Police Assistant Chief Ed Wilson.

"He was located after a tip on his whereabouts with the cooperation of the Putnam County Sheriff's Department and Greencastle Police Department. He was located in Greencastle and taken into custody without incident. The investigation is ongoing," Wilson told The Putnam County Post. 

According to recent court documents, McGuff and another man showed up at an apartment complex in Greencastle this past weekend and McGuff and the other individual rushed into a residence when the victim opened the door. An incident took place inside the residence where the victim was shot. The suspect was identified as McGuff, who faces formal charges of aggravated battery when the assault poses a substantial risk of death, robbery resulting in bodily injury, criminal recklessness where the suspect shoots a firearm into a building and auto theft. The aggravated battery and robbery charges are Level 3 felonies, the criminal recklessness charge is a Level 5 felony and the auto theft charge is a Level 6 felony. 

After stealing the victim's vehicle, McGuff was on the run briefly before caught. 

McGuff, who was arrested last year on a murder charge, was released from the Clay County Jail last month on a recognizance bond due to his trial not starting fast enough. Indiana law mandates a person detained on a charge must have their trial begin within 180 days. That was not the case with McGuff.

Last May, McGuff allegedly killed William Matherly, of Brazil. According to police, officers arrived to 310 North Leavitt St. in Brazil and found Matherly with multiple gunshot wounds. Matherly died as a result of his wounds and after a brief search, McGuff was arrested by officers.
