Security Camera Captures Arrest of Suspected Serial Killer

MARTA police have released security camera footage which shows the arrest of a man who police believe has killed at least four people in Atlanta and DeKalb County.

According to CBS Atlanta, Aeman Presley’s alleged killing spree was brought to an end innocently enough when he tried to sneak through the gates at the Georgia State MARTA Station without paying. Footage shows Presley following closely behind a wheelchair-bound patron proceeding through the handicapped gate, which stays open longer to accommodate wheelchairs.

Officers James Williams and Lashi Smith approached Presley and took him to an area away from foot traffic to ask him if he had his Breeze Card, CBS Atlanta says. Presley, who looked nervous, attempted to get away but was quickly subdued by Williams and Smith, the station reports.

It wasn’t until Presley was in custody that the officers discovered the handgun loaded with hollow-point ammunition in his backpack, CBS Atlanta says. Police have confirmed that the gun and the ammunition match the gun and ammunition used to kill sleeping homeless men Dorian Jenkins and Tommy “Can Man” Mims on Nov. 23 and Nov. 26, respectively.

Presley has also been charged with the murders of Karen Pearce and Calvin Gholston in the Decatur area, police confirmed earlier this week. Police said that Presley confessed to Pearce’s murder while in custody.
