BBM. Sadly this serial killer was arrested in Arlington on Aug 5th (later that day he attacked for the second time in Leesburg, Va). Here's a part of the NBC article that covers this...
Police in Arlington, Va., said Abuelazam was arrested there during a routine traffic stop Aug. 5 at 1:15 a.m. Arlington Detective Crystal L. Nosal said police realized he was wanted on a simple assault warrant in Leesburg, about 30 miles away, but a magistrate released him on personal recognizance, meaning he was responsible for returning to court.
Genesee County, Mich., prosecutor David Leyton said the Arlington stop was for failure to obey a highway sign and police found a knife in the driver's side door and a hammer on the floor of Abuelazam's 1996 green and gold Chevrolet Blazer.
Police impounded the Blazer -- which matched a vehicle described by some survivors -- and then gave it back to Abuelazam, Leyton said.
According to court records in Loudoun County, where Leesburg is located, Abuelazam was arrested in December 2007 and charged with felony gun possession. Those charges were dropped the next year.
He was also charged with misdemeanor assault in 2008, and had a court date scheduled for next week.
