Kidnapper Kills Self Rather than be Taken Alive

Posted: Updated:

The Mississippi man accused of killing two people and kidnapping two others is dead.

The FBI said Adam Mayes, 35, shot and killed himself as SWAT team members moved in.  They believe Mayes killed Jo Ann Bain and her 14-year-old daughter Adrienne and then kidnapped her other two daughters, 12-year-old Alexandria and 8-year-old Kyliyah.

Authorities said the missing girls are now safe and appear to be unharmed.
