Authorities say Weaver's BMW was tracked using surveillance footage, social media posts, and flock cameras. He led police on a high-speed chase, reaching speeds well over 100 m.p.h. ending with a crash in Lexington.
Weaver attempted to flee on foot but was captured and taken into custody.
During a press briefing last Friday, FBI Special Agent Olivia Olson said the tragedy is far from over for the community.
"The only solace we can offer is that this individual, who valued a stolen dollar more than two human lives, will be held accountable to the full extent of the law," Olson said.
Kentucky Attorney General Russell Coleman announced plans to pursue state murder charges along with federal charges. Weaver's court appearance is scheduled for 2:00 p.m. on Monday.
