(The Hill) — The suspect in Monday night’s shooting in Philadelphia that left five people dead has been identified as 40-year-old Kimbrady Carriker, according to CNN.
Carriker was set to be arraigned Wednesday on charges of murder, attempted murder, aggravated assault and simple assault, CNN reported.
Four adults and a teenager were killed and two children were injured Monday when the shooter — who was equipped with a bulletproof vest, multiple ammunition magazines, a scanner, an “AR style gun” and a handgun — opened fire in the Kingsessing neighborhood of Philadelphia.
Police pursued the shooter on foot as they continued “actively shooting a firearm” and arrested them in a nearby alley, police said.
Police Commissioner Danielle M. Outlaw said at a news conference on Tuesday that the alleged shooter fired “seemingly at random.”
“Let me crystal clear: What happened last night in our Kingsessing neighborhood was unimaginably disgusting and horrifying,” she also said.
