Catlin Boswell, 36, the suspect in the killing, allegedly fled the scene before authorities arrived. He was arrested in a nearby county. 

"Violent crimes like this are still shocking in Forsyth, the fact that a son could take the life of his own father and try to do the same of his mother is beyond comprehension," Forsyth Sheriff Ron Freeman said in a statement. "The ability to take this offender into custody in less than two hours was a direct result of incredible work by our Uniform Patrol Division and the talented work of our Major Crimes and Crime Scene units."

A motive has not been disclosed.
