Colorado murder suspect captured at Upper Keys gas station

A 32-year-old Castle Rock, Colorado man wanted in connection with the death of his mother last month was captured by Monroe County Sheriff’s Office Deputies at a Plantation Key gas station early Tuesday morning.

Matthew Harless Buchanan is currently in jail and is expected to be returned to Colorado to face multiple charges, including murder and arson.

The Sheriff’s Office received information at approximately 3 a.m. that a white Dodge Caravan and Buchanan were in Monroe County.

A be-on-the-lookout alert was issued and the van was found shortly thereafter at the 7-Eleven in Plantation Key.

Buchanan was detained.

A 50-year-old Daytona Beach woman also in the van was released.
