Robertsdale police have arrested Baldwin County's most wanted suspect.

Someone spotted Todd Gates walking past Fred's Dollar Store on Hwy 59 at Hwy 90 and called police. Police arrested him just before 10:00 a.m.

Baldwin County deputies raided Gates' Summerdale home Tuesday afternoon. They found meth and a stash of guns, but no sign of Gates.

Sheriff Hoss Mack says Gates had surveillance cameras set up around his property so he could see if police were coming after him. They say he also had a security system to alert him that cops were there.

Mack says what makes gates so dangerous is that he both uses and makes methamphetamines.
