The North Charleston Police Department had told other departments to be on the look out for a vehicle in which a female had been kidnapped at gunpoint about midnight from 5633-G Dorchester Road, according to Berkeley County Sheriff's spokesman Dan Moon.

A vehicle matching that description was spotted by St George police officers and was later found at a club on McKeen Street in St. George. The suspect, Tyler Brown-Kelly, 28, was taken into custody.

Brown-Kelly is charged with murder. He is being held at the Hill-Finklea Detention.
