The Lowell Sun reports the man barricaded in a Motel 6 room in Tewksbury on Sunday night and later taken into custody is wanted by Framingham Police in connection with a shooting in Framingham last Saturday.

According to The Sun, Tewksbury Police confirmed that the man taken into custody is Damon Johnson, 24, who Framingham Police allege shot a 29-year-old man in the back of the head just before 5 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 25. 

Framingham Patch reports that after the shooting on Aug. 25, Johnson allegedly took off in a car while armed with a 9mm handgun and when cornered by police, escaped on foot. A manhunt took place but he was not found Saturday night.

The victim was taken to Boston Medical Center and the bullet did not penetrate his skull, Framingham Police said. He was released from the hospital early the next day.

Framingham Police issued a "wanted" poster for Johnson this past week.

On Sunday evening, NEMLEC's official Twitter account tweeted, "Armed barricaded suspect at Motel 6, 95 Main St. Tewksbury surrenders to NEMLEC SWAT at 7:30 pm. Tewksbury Police take custody of suspect."
