Sources say Petties was captured there Monday, although details surrounding his arrest are not being released.<br />The U.S. Marshals say Petties is the head of a large drug organization that distributed more than 1,000 kilos of cocaine in Memphis, Jackson, Mississippi, and Atlanta.<br />Petties lived a lavish lifestyle. Investigators say they've seized two homes valued at more than a million dollars and 20 luxury vehicles.<br />But he was also considered armed and dangerous.<br />Marshal's say he's a member of the street gang Ganster Disciples, who are reported to have committed a number of violent crimes. In fact, the feds have said Petties may hold the key to a number of unsolved murders in South Memphis.<br />The Feds have said they want to question Petties in the 2005 deaths of James Mabry and Angela Macklin, who were found dead in Haywood County.<br />They have also wanted to ask him about a triple homicide on Kansas Street. <br />Now, it seems they'll have their chance.
