US police arrest rapist after finding six bodies
Police in the US have arrested a convicted rapist after they found as many as six bodies at his house.
Police spokesman Lieutenant Thomas Stacho said 50-year-old Anthony Sowell was arrested about noon today in his inner-city neighbourhood in Cleveland, Ohio.
He said charges are pending.
Lt Stacho said officers have found three bodies and believe they have discovered three more but are awaiting confirmation from the coroner.
The first two bodies were found on Thursday night when police went to Sowell’s home to arrest him on charges of felonious assault and rape.
Police said he had spent 15 years in prison for a 1989 rape.
