Man Arrested for Killing Fleeing Rapist
http://eaglerising.com/2351/man-arre...leeing-rapist/
Norris Acosta-Sanchez was a fugitive from justice on the run because he was facing multiple charges of rape. He’d been on the run since earlier this summer because he’d been fleeing active arrest warrants for rape of underage victim(s). A manhunt began for him late last week, after a local man reported to police that he was living in the area. The same local man is now under arrest for killing Acosta-Sanchez after the fugitive showed up on his property, earlier this week.
According to a local news affiliate, Acosta-Sanchez had moved into the area in recent months after fleeing the rape investigation in Rockland County, New York. Acosta-Sanchez was living in the area near David Carlson’s home, doing odd jobs to make money. At some point, Carlson became suspicious of the man and confronted him about what he was doing in the area. Apparently, Acosta-Sanchez admitted to Carlson that he was a fugitive on the run from law enforcement. Sources say that Carlson then took this information to the authorities and tipped them off about where Acosta-Sanchez was hiding out.
At that point, local authorities launched a manhunt for Acosta-Sanchez, but he was somehow able to evade authorities and avoid capture. The neighborhood was on edge as this child rapist, who had been hiding in the woods surrounding their homes, was still on the loose. After a few days, Acosta-Sanchez reappeared in the area, having circled back to the place he had been staying.
It was after all this Carlson found Acosta-Sanchez on his property.
DavidCarlsonCarlson, armed with a 12 gauge shotgun, told Acosta-Sanchez that they would be going over to a neighbor’s house to call the police. According to police, something happened over the next few moments as they began moving towards the neighbor’s house and Carlson shot four times, killing the suspected rapist.
Carlson is now being charged with second-degree murder.
Some of his neighbors are not at all happy with Carlson’s arrest.
One witness saw the shooting but was tight lipped because he will testify before a grand jury. “I didn’t see a murder happen. That’s as far as I’m going to go,” he said. “I can tell you the community was in fear. I can tell you Dave wasn’t the only one who armed himself.”
