Dandridge, Tenn. ? A registered sex offender wanted in the death of a Clemson University student who was strangled with her bikini top was captured late Tuesday in Tennessee, officials said.

Jerry Buck Inman, 35, who was wanted on arrest warrants for murder, rape and kidnapping, was taken into custody during a traffic stop about a mile from his parents’ home in Dandridge, Sheriff David Davenport said.

Inman was being taken to the county jail. No other details of his arrest were immediately released.

Inman’s DNA matched samples taken from Tiffany Marie Souers’ apartment in Greenville, S.C., said State Law Enforcement Division Chief Robert Stewart.

The body of the 20-year-old civil engineering junior from Ladue, Mo., was discovered May 26 in her off-campus apartment, wearing only a bra with the bikini top still around her neck.
