BREAKING UPDATE: Trans-identified male ‘Mia Bailey’ CAUGHT after Utah manhunt, suspected of killing parents

The St. George Police Department announced on Facebook that Collin Troy Bailey was taken into custody at around 10:30 am local time. A shelter-in-place order was issued for the neighborhoods of Bloomington Hills and Fort Pierce overnight, with the order being lifted at around 7 am. St. George Police public information officer Tiffany Mitchell told St. George News that the deceased victims found were Bailey’s parents.

The department said in a press release that police responded to a shots fired incident at 1039 E Chinook Drive in Washington City at around 7 pm local time. When officers entered the residence, they found two deceased adults, one male and one female, with apparent gunshot wounds. Officers attempted lifesaving measures on the two victims, but the two were pronounced dead. No other victims or suspects were located in the apartment.

"From the initial investigation, it was apparent a double homicide had occurred," the department said. A single suspect, Collin Troy Bailey, was identified by police, who noted that Bailey is a "transgender male transitioning to a female and currently goes by the name of Mia Bailey."

Bailey is described as being 5’10", 130 lbs, white, and having brown hair, though police noted that Bailey "wears wigs and is known to change hairstyles frequently." Bailey was seen leaving the area in a yellow 2014 Kia Soul with a Utah license plate reading U069GF.

Bailey is considered armed and dangerous, police said, and requested that the public not approach Bailey if spotted. Police believed Bailey could still be in the Washington County area.

"The Washington City Police Department sends our heartfelt condolences to the victim’s family in this horrific tragedy," the department said.
