Police later identified him as Robert Ryan, 70.<\/p>\n<p>Investigators determined the fire had been set intentionally and began treating Robert Ryan\u2019s death as a <a href=\"https:\/\/foxnews.com\/category\/us\/crime\/homicide\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">homicide<\/a>. Police soon began searching for his son.<\/p>\n<p>Ryan did not live with his father and had no other known ties to the Greenville area at the time, according to State Police.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/foxnews.com\/us\/americas-most-wanted-fugitive-captured-sailboat-nj-coast-20-years-run\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>&#8216;AMERICA&#8217;S MOST WANTED&#8217; FUGITIVE CAPTURED ON SAILBOAT OFF NJ COAST AFTER 20 YEARS ON THE RUN<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Investigators believed Ryan left in his father\u2019s gray 2016 Toyota Prius. As the search widened, police repeatedly described him as &#8220;armed and dangerous&#8221; and urged anyone who spotted him to call 911 rather than approach him.<\/p>\n<p>Police combed through surveillance video from homes and businesses, trying to trace Ryan\u2019s movements after the killing. Residents in Greenville and nearby communities were asked to check footage recorded from about 6 p.m. Thursday through the overnight hours.<\/p>\n<p>Police said Ryan had stayed at shelters across New York and was known to frequent the Plattsburgh area, more than 200 miles north of Greenville. Investigators checked places where he had previously stayed and worked with rail operators because Ryan was known to travel by train.<\/p>\n<p>The investigation eventually involved the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/tech\/topics\/fbi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">FBI<\/a>, NYPD, the Orange County Sheriff\u2019s Office and police departments in Middletown and Port Jervis, along with several State Police investigative units and other state and county agencies.<\/p>\n<p>Police have not disclosed a possible motive, how Robert Ryan died or what charges Thomas Ryan faces.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/us\/police-nab-armed-dangerous-new-york-fugitive-suspected-killing-father-torching-home\">Source &#8211;
