0:34Now PlayingA 15-year-old migrant suspected of shooting a tourist and firing at a police officer in a robbery-gone-wrong in Times Square was arrested on Friday, law enforcement sources said.
The US Marshals Joint Regional Fugitive Task Force and the NYPD took the Venezuelan teen into custody at a home in Yonkers at around 3:30 p.m., according to the sources.
It came just moments after NYPD Chief of Patrol John Chell identified Jesus Alejandro Rivas-Figueroa as the “armed and dangerous” person of interest in the chaotic incident at the Crossroads of the World Thursday night.
The teen arrived in September and had been staying at a temporary shelter at the Stratford Hotel on West 70th Street, Chell told reporters.
He is also a suspect in an armed robbery in the Bronx from January 27, and another incident in which shots were fired in Midtown, the police official said.
