The search for the suspect continued in the mountains just west of Anaconda, where he is accused of fatally shooting four people, officials said.

Michael Paul Brown, 45, fled the Owl Bar in the town of Anaconda in a white pickup truck but ditched it at some point, said Lee Johnson, administrator of the Montana Division of Criminal Investigation, which is overseeing the case. He urged residents late Friday to stay at home and remain on high alert.
