Man Arrested in NY City Double Murder | New York City News

A 31-year-old man with a violent past, Jesus Acosta, has been arrested in NYC after a tense manhunt for allegedly committing two murders and an attempted murder within days. First, he shot a coworker dead and wounded another in Brooklyn; then, two days later, he ambushed a Bronx restaurant, killing one patron and robbing the place. Found thanks to an anonymous tip in a park, Acosta’s only comment to reporters was “God is good.” His arrest brings closure to grieving families, especially the victim’s loved ones in the Bronx. This isn’t his first rodeo—he’s got a history of armed robbery and shooting, including a recent parole release just months ago. The FBI and local groups had offered up to $35,000 for tips leading to his capture. Now, he’s behind bars and facing arraignment.
