Yahya Abdulkadir, the murderer of a Gwinnett County police officer, is where? Arrest and Accusation
The person suspected of being behind the shooting death of correctional officer Scott Riner earlier this week has been taken into custody by Gwinnett County Police.
On Friday, December 16, Yahya Abdulkadir, 22, was apprehended and charged with felony murder and aggravated assault.
Around 1:30 pm, SWAT personnel reportedly made a non-violent arrest of the 22-year-old at the Black Dot community center off Main Street in Lithonia.
In the hopes that someone would identify him and alert the police, investigators published a picture of the suspect taken from security video that showed the man’s face.
According to them, Abdulkadir was the individual captured on camera. Gwinnett County Police Sgt. Jennifer Richter stated, “We think he is the same individual we have seen.
They add that prior to the arrest, the crew had been following him for a number of hours.
According to investigators, Abdulkadir and Riner had a fight before Abdulkadir shot Riner and left the scene.
According to the police, Riner’s coworkers discovered him wounded in the parking lot. The reason for the fatal shooting is unclear to them.
Investigators think Abdulkadir committed the crime by himself. They believe that the culprit’s capture would provide solace to Riner’s family.
Detectives have been working nonstop to solve this, according to Sgt. Richter. Riner has spent more than ten years working at the prison.
