Police said they do not believe a California serial killer and a gunman in Chicago responsible for two high-profile murders in 2018 are the same person despite their similar walking style.
The gunmen in both states appear to have a similar stride and unusually upright posture. Despite the similarities, Stockton police said there is no reason to believe the two cases are related.
"As part of our investigation, we have reached out to numerous law enforcement agencies in our state and across the nation," Stockton Police Public Information Officer Joe Silva said. "We did our due diligence reaching out to Chicago PD based off the videos we have seen of their suspect. At this time though, we do not have anything linking the two investigations.
Watts was shot and killed Sept. 30, 2018, around 10 a.m. while walking his dogs. Police said a gunman dressed in all black and wearing a ski mask approached the 73-year-old and shot him in the head before fleeing. About 36 hours after Watts was gunned down, police said Moscowitz was shot and killed a half mile away on a lakefront path at Loyola Park.Officials in Stockton are offering $125,000 for information leading to an arrest in their slayings.that I have read and agree
