Suspected Netflix Serial Killer Arrested – Police Had Reportedly Been Eyeing Him for a Year
In the end, it was a pizza crust that led to the suspect’s arrest.
A 59-year-old architect was taken into custody Thursday night in connection with a series of murders on Long Island, according to The Associated Press.
The man, identified as Rex Heuermann, was caught after detectives “recovered his DNA from pizza crust in a box that he discarded in a Manhattan trash can and matched it to a hair found on a restraint used in the killings,” the AP reported.
The New York Post reported that Heuermann has been a person of interest for over a year.
Investigators have worked for more than a decade to solve the killings,
