Philadelphia police believe the same man wanted for a violent attack in New York City's Museum of Modern Art is connected to an arson that happened at a Center City Best Western hotel. MattPetrillo reports
Over the weekend, the NYPD released surveillance video of a man seen hopping over a counter before stabbing a man and a woman multiple times. The victims are in stable condition.
Fast forward to Monday night. Police and firefighters in Philadelphia were called to the Best Western in Center City on the 1200 block of Vine Street around 6 p.m. for reports of a fire inside a room on the fifth floor. They were able to put it out, but not before doing extensive damage. It wasn’t long after releasing the suspect’s description that officers in Philadelphia found the man sleeping on a bench inside a Greyhound bus station.
The suspect reportedly told the arresting officers that Philly police are “the best cops in the United States.”The NYPD is still investigating a motive for the museum attack but says the suspect was a member at the museum who recently had his membership revoked.“Nothing in our profession is accomplished alone. Thank you, Commissioner Danielle Outlaw and the Philadelphia Police Department,” NYPD Commissioner Keechant Sewel said.
