Christopher Keeley, age 27, was arrested in Miami Beach, FL, in connection with the murders of Carl and Vicki Mattson at their Marshfield home on Saturday, Dec. 3, Plymouth County District Attorney Tim Cruz said on Twitter.

The married couple, both 70, was found stabbed to death at 75 Gotham Hill Drive in Marshfield around 9:19 p.m. on Tuesday, as previously reported by Daily Voice. In addition, the couple's dog was also found dead inside the home, Cruz said. 

Authorities later issued a "Be On The Lookout (BOLO)" Keeley, who was said to be acquainted with the Mattsons. Authorities said the incident as not a random act of violence.

Keeley is being jailed in the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center in Miami, MassLive reports, and faces a hearing to determine whether he will wave rendition before being brought back to Massachusetts, Cruz concluded.
