WATCH LIVE: New info on Stockton night killer from police chief, mayor at 3 p.m. news conf.
At a press conference on Saturday, Stockton City Manager Harry Black announced the arrest. Stockton Police Chief Stanley McFadden identified the suspect as 43-year-old Wesley Brownlee.
McFadden said the arrest was made around 2 a.m. Saturday. Police say they received tips from the public that led them to Brownlee's home. After observing Brownlee driving away from his residence, police moved in and arrested him in the area of Village Green Drive and Winslow Way. When he was pulled over, Brownlee was allegedly dressed in black and had a black mask around his neck. He also had a firearm in possession, McFadden said. McFadden believes Brownlee was looking for his next victim.
The serial killer has shot and killed six people and injured a seventh in Stockton and Oakland. Ballistics evidence linked the same gun to shootings, authorities say. [Editor's note: A previous version of this story incorrectly stated that the Sacramento Police Department would be holding the press conference.]
