A suspect in the shooting deaths of five men — including a quadruple homicide inside a Kansas City home — was arrested early Wednesday in a ditch next to a Missouri highway, NBC News reported.
Pablo Antonio Serrano-Vitorino, 40, was taken into custody after pulling a gun on a passerby at a gas station, Sgt. Scott White of Missouri State Highway Patrol told reporters.
The witness called cops, who found the suspect in a ditch near the junction of Interstate 70 and Highway 19 in Montgomery County, about 170 miles east of Kansas City. A rifle was discovered but Serrano-Vitorino did not resist arrest, according to officials.
Serrano-Vitorino, a citizen of Mexico, was kicked out of the U.S. in 2004 but returned illegally, Immigration and Customs Enforcement said. He had been fingerprinted last September, but ICE erroneously sent him to the wrong agency, federal officials said.
