Bodycam: Suspect of sex crime in unsolved case arrested on MARTA bus

New bodycam video shows the moment Atlanta police arrested one of the 10 most wanted fugitives on a MARTA bus.

The arrest took place on Thursday, August 15, on Cascade Road.

Police said they received a tip that Randy Baugh was on the bus.

After stopping the bus, officers quickly found Baugh and handcuffed him.

“Stand up for me,” the officer can be heard telling Baugh in the recording. “I got him.”

In the video, Baugh tells officers his name is “Randy Jackson,” but police say they've already positively identified him thanks to surveillance. He later admitted what his real last name was.

According to investigators, Baugh was arrested in November 2023 for two unsolved sex crimes from 1986 and 1988.

He escaped from custody after being taken to the Grady Detention Center and remained on the Atlanta Police Department's Top 10 Most Wanted list to this day.
