Oregon murder suspect forced woman to drive him 2,000 miles, cops say

A man sought in the killings of his father and two other people in a small Oregon city forced a woman to drive him more than 2,000 miles to Wisconsin, where he surrendered to police, authorities said Sunday.

Johnson was not hurt and was returning to Oregon, Springfield police said in a statement. "He approached her in her vehicle with a gun," Johnson's father, Dennis Johnson, told KEZI-TV. "They said she was forced to drive 33 hours to where they’re at. She was able to talk him into turning himself in." Nicholson is suspected of killing his father, Charles Simms Nicholson, whose body was found in a trailer in an RV campground of The Mill Casino in the coastal city of North Bend, about 110 miles southwest of Springfield, on Friday.
