Vang Suspect in Another Murder

Chai Vang, the suspect in the murder of 6 hunters last week in Sawyer County, Wisconsin, is now being further looked at as a suspect in a 2001 murder in Clark County. This case involves the murder of Jim Southworth, who went out hunting and his body was later found on a road with two gun shots in the back and his gun was missing. When those in the area saw the sketch of Vang, they immediately thought of the suspects from Southworth's case, which were three Asian men. Coincidently, Vang was also said to be hunting with two other Asian men when the shooting in Sawyer County occurred, these two men are now being searched for. Another coincidence is that the suspect of Southworth's case was seen in a Nissan or Chevy truck from the late 1980s. Vang owns a 1987 Nissan truck. Investigators are being careful to take in all the evidence and not jump to improper conclusions.
