Serial Killer Targeting Homeless People in NY, DC Arrested


Gerald Brevard III

A serial killer who targeted homeless people in Washington, DC and New York was arrested on Tuesday morning.

DC police on Tuesday announced 30-year-old Gerald Brevard III was in custody after tipsters identified the serial killer from surveillance photos posted online.

Gerald Brevard reportedly shot at least 5 homeless people in 10 days in New York and DC.

DC Police posted photos of the shooting suspect and offered up to $55,000 for information that led to his arrest and conviction.

Gerald Brevard was arrested at his home in the southeastern section of the capital, the New York Post reported.

The New York Post reported:

A suspect in the serial killing and shooting of homeless people in the Big Apple and Washington, DC, was arrested early Tuesday in the capital, police announced.

The gunman – identified by a high-ranking police official as Gerald Brevard III, 30 – was busted when investigators showed up at his home in the southeastern section of the capital, law enforcement sources said.

“ARRESTED: Early this AM, law enforcement arrested the suspect in Washington, DC,” the DC Police Department announced at 5:40 a.m.

“He is currently being interviewed at our Homicide Branch. Additional information will be forthcoming. Thanks to the community for all your tips.”

The arrest came just hours after the force released clear facial photos of the prime suspect who has been tied to two murders and three attempted homicides targeting homeless men in both cities.

The same man was linked to both cities after chilling video footage caught the cold-blooded slaying of one of two homeless people shot in Soho on Saturday.
