The five shootings police are investigating as part of the pattern of homicides took place in the northern part of the city between July 8 and Sept. 27, according to a police department statement.
The motive behind the homicides is"not at all" clear to investigators yet, McFadden said, but police do not believe the killings are gang-related.
While referring to the killings as a"series of homicides," McFadden stopped short of calling the perpetrator or perpetrators a serial killer."We have a series of homicides we have no evidence to tell if there are two or three" perpetrators, he said. "At that time we had assumptions, but not facts. Now we know we have certain facts." McFadden said he was briefed on the person of interest Friday morning.
