TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Police arrested a man late Tuesday and said they will charge him with murder in a string of killings that have terrorized a neighborhood of Tampa.
Tampa Police Chief Brian Dugan announced at a news conference that Howell Emanuel Donaldson, 24, would be charged with four counts of first degree murder.
Police detained Donaldson earlier Tuesday after a tip that he had a gun at a McDonald's restaurant.
Residents and police had been on edge since Oct. 9, when 22-year-old Benjamin Mitchell was shot to death. Two days later, 32-year-old Monica Hoffa, was slain. And on Oct. 19, Anthony Naiboa, 20, was killed after taking the wrong bus home from his new job. On Nov. 14, 60-year-old Ronald Felton was killed.
All of the October victims were either getting on or off a city bus, or were at a bus stop when they were shot, police said.
Dugan said the department had received more than 5,000 tips. He thanked those who called in the tip that led to Donaldson's arrest. No further information was provided about Donaldson.

He was going to do a massacre of the patrons at McDonald's.
They say there was no motive. Sure there was. Hate whitey, get whitey, kill whitey.
No, this guy killed mostly blacks, and one white woman.
He may have been the living embodiment of the phrase "serial killer," as opposed to the corrupted definition promoted by publicity whores like Robert K. Ressler (single white guy in his 30s): A man who walks around, murdering strangers to whom he has no connection, and no motive.
One white woman murdered is one too many. He killed her because she was white.
