Police swooped in on Yale lab tech Ray Clark today, arresting him in connection with the murder of graduate student Annie Le, whose battered body was found stuffed in a wall on the day she was supposed to get married.

Investigators have gathered more than 250 pieces of evidence in the case, sources told ABC News, including text messages exchanged between Clark and Le arranging to meet on the day the disappeared.

Clark was taken into custody by police early today after standing vigil all night outside a motel in Cromwell, Conn., where the suspect had retreated to on Wednesday. Earlier Wednesday, police had taken DNA samples from Clark, searched his apartment and then let him go.

A convoy of pollice and FBI cars pulled into the motel parking lot with lights flashing about 8:20 a.m. while others blocked off the intersection. FBI agents ran up stairs at the back of the motel. Clark was arrested minutes later.

The arrest warrant charges Clark with murder and set bail at $3 million.

Officers held a news conference almost simultaneously and Police Chief James Lewis said, "There were no issues with the arrest. It went smoothly."
