What Evidence Gave Law Enforcement A Possible Clue About The Stockton Serial Killer?

According to NPR, investigators have little to go on when it comes to identifying Stockton's serial killer. The Guardian adds that there does not seem to be an apparent motive for these crimes. Moreover, the authorities note that they also can't rule out the possibility that there is more than one shooter. That said, the only description they have comes from the woman who survived. Although surveillance video has captured images of the alleged gunman, his face is obscured from view. Nevertheless, The Independent states that the police have recently released this surveillance footage in an effort to locate this "person of interest."

Per CBS News, the grainy video shows one man dressed in all black. His face is covered, and he has his hands in his pocket. He also has a peculiar gait that ABC7 refers to as a "duck walk." AP News explains that the same figure has been captured in surveillance video near each of the crime scenes. As of now, The Guardian reports that this is all the information the police are providing to the general public.

Joe Silva from the Stockton Police department told The Independent that Stockton residents need to be aware of danger. He said, "We're just asking for our community to remain vigilant and have really good situational awareness." However, KCRA notes that there is now a new lead from Chicago regarding the Stockton killer.
