The US Marshals Service, who have joined the investigation, said on Thursday night that the suspect was spotted in Georgia earlier that day, driving with family in the Atlanta suburbs. According to the New York Times, Pan has been charged with unlawful flight to avoid prosecution and interstate theft of a vehicle in connection with the killing of Jiang.

“He didn’t come from a whole lot, it was just him and his mom,” Eric Novak, one of his high school teachers, told the Sun-Times. “He worked after school in a telemarketing job and then went fishing after work and he would show us pictures and be like ‘This is what I caught and I made it for my mom for dinner.”
