James DiMaggio -- the California murder suspect who allegedly kidnapped 16-year-old Hannah Anderson -- was fatally shot Saturday by an FBI agent in the Idaho wilderness, authorities said.

Authorities first spotted the pair's campsite from the air, then sent in law enforcement personnel on the ground, said San Diego County Sheriff Bill Gore. An FBI tactical agent shot and killed DiMaggio, 40, during a confrontation about 5:15 p.m. (7:15 p.m. ET) near Morehead Lake, according to the sheriff.

The teenage girl was found alive near him.

"Hannah is safe, and that was our first priority from the very beginning," Valley County, Idaho, Sheriff Patti Bolen said.

Hannah Anderson did not appear to have suffered any significant physical injuries, but nonetheless was helicoptered out from the rescue scene to a hospital, Dearden said.

Her father Brett will head to Idaho, where he will likely reunite with his daughter Sunday morning, according to Gore, the San Diego County sheriff.

Brett Anderson said that he was going through a range of emotions Saturday, upon hearing of his daughter's rescue days after his wife and son's death.

"It's now healing time," Anderson said via text.

A friend of Hannah Anderson on Saturday provided a clearer picture of the relationship between DiMaggio and the teen.

Marissa Chavez told CNN that she was in a car with Hannah and DiMaggio a few months ago when the 40-year-old told Hannah he had a crush on her.

He followed it up by saying if he was her age, he would date Hannah, Chavez said.

Hannah was unnerved by the comments, but did not tell her mother because she did not want to ruin the close relationship that her parents had with DiMaggio, Chavez said.

After that, however, Hannah did not want to be alone with DiMaggio, Chavez said.

In an earlier episode, Chavez recalled a trip that DiMaggio and Hannah took to Hollywood. The trip was supposed to be for one week, but Hannah told Chavez that they came back after two days because DiMaggio was upset that she wasn't paying enough attention to him.

"I don't think she would have gone willingly with him at all," she said. http://www.cnn.com/2013/08/10/justice/california-amber-alert/index.htm
