A man suspected of killing his wife and the boyfriend of his pregnant daughter and shooting his daughter in Florida was arrested in Louisiana early Wednesday, according to officials.

Osceola County Sheriff's Office spokeswoman Twis Lizasuain said Kevin Satterfield, 55, was arrested peacefully  by Louisiana authorities at a hotel room in Opelousas after 1:00 a.m. local time, the Orlando Sentinel reported.

Satterfield is suspected on two counts of first-degree murder and a count of attempted murder for the early Tuesday deaths of 27-year-old Christian Martinez and Satterfield's wife, 53-year-old Vicki Satterfield.

Satterfield's 21-year-old daughter, who is eight months pregnant, was airlifted to Orlando Regional Medical Center in critical condition.  She delivered a baby girl and is now out of surgery. Both the mother and daughter are recovering.

The Orlando Sentinel also reports that a family member said Satterfield told his mother he was driving to shoot executives at Framingham, Mass.-based Cumberland Farms. Satterfield worked as a manager for Cumberland Farms and the company told MyFoxOrlando.com that he was fired last June, but a spokesperson said they did not have information as to why he was terminated.

Police are now looking for Satterfield and they believe he may be armed and dangerous.  He left the home driving a 2004, red or maroon Jeep Cherokee with Florida tag M968JC. The vehicle has a wheelchair lift on the rear.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Osceola County Sheriff's Office at (407) 348-2222 or Crimeline at (800) 423-TIPS (8477).
