A man wanted in connection with a huge drug bust in south Georgia is now in custody and authorities say that you, our viewers, helped capture him.

It started Thursday morning when authorities raided a house in Decatur County, Georgia.

Officials found several pounds of marijuana, a substantial amount of cocaine, guns, and drug paraphernalia.

Authorities arrested 30-year-old Tearance Anderson and 29-year-old Demarco Peterson, but 29-year-old Labarette Anderson got away.

Authorities say they tracked Anderson down after getting several tips from viewers who saw our story on Thursday's drug bust.

At about 5pm Saturday, authorities in Decatur County located Anderson sitting inside a car.

Authorities say Anderson had $1,100, crack-cocaine, marijuana, and powder cocaine on him.

Officials also arrested three people who were trying to buy drugs from Anderson.
