A manhunt by the NYPD concluded on Saturday morning with the arrest of Jesus Acosta, a 31-year-old parolee suspected of two murders during a 48-hour robbery spree in New York City. Acosta was identified as the suspect in a shooting at a deli in the Bronx on Tuesday morning and another shooting at an eatery in Brooklyn early Sunday. His arrest followed the FBI's announcement of a $25,000 reward for information leading to his capture, related to the deaths of MD Yousef, 44, an employee at a wings spot, and Tayvon Shuler, 33, a patron at a bodega. Additionally, the United Bodegas of America offered a $10,000 reward for information leading to Acosta's arrest. Acosta had been on parole since April after serving 10 years in state prison for assault and criminal possession of a weapon, according to state prison records. The NYPD expressed gratitude to their officers, detectives, and the public for their assistance in locating Acosta.
