5 people were found slain in two rural Tennessee homes and a suspect is in custody - CNN

A suspect, Michael Cummins, is in custody after being shot by police, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation said in a release.
The bodies of four people and one injured person were found by authorities after a 911 call to a house about an hour northeast of Nashville, near the Kentucky state line. A fifth person was found slain in another home not far away, the TBI said.
Authorities did not say how they were killed or how the victims were related to each other.
Cummins, 25, was identified as a suspect and was found by a search plane in a creek bed about a mile from the first home.
More than a dozen officers from Sumner County's joint SWAT team found Cummins in the creek, the TBI said.
"The situation escalated, for reasons under investigation, and resulted in at least one officer firing his service weapon, striking Cummins," the TBI said. His injuries are not thought to be life-threatening, and no officers were hurt.
Authorities were still trying to identify the victims and notify family members Saturday night.
The suspect's motive and relationship to the victims is still under investigation, the TBI said.
