SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) -- An Idaho man wanted in connection with the shooting deaths of two people in Spokane Valley has been captured in southeastern Idaho.

The Spokane Valley Sheriff's Office said Tuesday that Gilberto Delgado was arrested without incident in the area of Pocatello.

The Sheriff's Office listed Delgado as the main suspect after two adults were found shot to death in Spokane Valley on Monday morning.

The victims were a brother and sister.

The Sheriff's Office says the bodies were found by the female victim's 7-year-old son, who called 911.

Sheriff's officials said Delgado was recently released from prison and may have had a romantic relationship with the mother.
