Murder suspect Robert Burton is in police custody. The Piscataquis County Sheriff's Office confirms that Burton turned himself in at around noon today.

Burton is suspected of killing his former girlfriend, Stephanie Ginn Gebo. Her body was found on June 5 by her children in the Parkman home the couple had once shared. Gebo and Burton broke up a week before she was killed.

Since the murder, Burton has been on the run in woods around the Parkman/Guilford area. Police and the FBI have been searching for him, with only a couple of confirmed sightings.

The Piscataquis County Sheriff's office says Burton is being processed on a fugitive from justice warrant. He is being held at the Piscataquis County Jail.

State Police spokesman Steve McCausland said Burton is expected to make his first court appearance in "the next couple of days."

We'll have more details as they become available.
