There is apparently a serial killer in California: he is said to have murdered five men in the city of Stockton since July. All the victims were shot alone in the dark – none showed signs of theft or violence. According to the police, there are no connections between the victims, they were said to have had no contact with each other.
All five cases have one thing in common: the victims walked alone at night or in the early morning hours, they were ambushed and shot. All the murders all happened within a three-mile radius. The police rule out drug or gang crimes. According to investigators, ballistic evidence and a photo now point to a connection between the crimes.
There is now a suspect. Video recordings, which the police assessed with difficulty, resulted in a hit. Police have released an image of a shadowy figure dressed in dark clothes and taken from behind. The person on it would have been filmed near the crime scene.
Stockton police said the murders took place between July 8 and September 27. Police are advising residents of the city to remain vigilant and avoid remote and dark areas.
$95,000 reward offered for capture
Authorities, the private organization Stockton Crime Stoppers and a local business owner are offering a total of $95,000 in rewards for information leading to the perpetrator’s arrest.
