(CNN) -- A massive manhunt that spanned 1,000 miles ended in gunfire in the Idaho wild late Saturday afternoon -- shots that ended the life of the family friend who was suspected of abducting 16-year-old Hannah Anderson and killing her mother and brother.

The teenager was rescued near Morehead Lake, Idaho, where an FBI tactical agent killed her alleged kidnapper, James DiMaggio, around 5:20 p.m (7:20 p.m. ET), authorities said.

"It's now healing time," Brett Anderson, Hannah's father, said in a message to CNN.

Hannah Anderson had last been seen in San Diego County, California, at her cheerleading practice August 3. The bodies of her mother, Christina Anderson, and 8-year-old brother, Ethan, were found the next day about 45 miles east in DiMaggio's Boulevard house; lab tests were needed to identify the boy because his remains were so badly charred.

Glad to know the girl is safe, my prayers go out to the Andersons that they come back from this okay.

One less savage that has to breathe. At least the girl is safe.

The a**hole deserved much more than that. At least he's gone now.

 

My condolences go out to the victim and her recovery.

Great news and good riddance to that crazy killer/pedophile. A bullet to the head was needed here and it was delivered to the right target at the right time. No need to put him through a trial or execution or jail. Great job to the people that saved her and contacted the authorities to warn them about the problem!!!!!!!!!!
