Aaron Hernandez investigation: Ernest Wallace captured in Florida

A possible accessory to the murder of Odin Lloyd is now in police custody.

Ernest Wallace was caught in Florida on Friday, according to the Massachusetts State Police.

Wallace is wanted in connection with the ongoing murder investigation involving Aaron Hernandez. Police issued a lookout for the 41-year-old Wallace on Thursday night. They suspect he may have been an accessory to the murder of Odin Lloyd.

The New England Patriots released Hernandez earlier this week, and the tight end was charged with the murder of Lloyd on Wednesday. He remains in police custody after being denied bail by a judge. In addition to the Lloyd case, police are also looking into Hernandez's possible involvement in a double murder that occurred in 2012.

Hernandez faces five gun charges as well as the first-degree murder charge. Among other things, he was found carrying a firearm without a license.
