Arrest made in Gilgo Beach serial killings

A suspect in the decade-old Gilgo Beach serial killer case on Long Island, New York, has been taken into custody, police said Friday.

Sources identified the suspect as Rex Heuermann, an architect who lives in Massapequa Park. He was arrested Thursday night in Manhattan, police said. He was taken to police headquarters in Yaphank and was expected to be indicted by a grand jury Friday afternoon, authorities said.

Massapequa and Manhattan have been two key locations in the Gilgo Beach murders investigation for years, a senior law enforcement source told PIX11 News on Friday.
