Virginia police on Friday said they believe a serial killer may be behind four mysterious homicides in the state since August.
They said the alleged serial killer, Anthony Eugene Robinson, 35, has been dubbed "the shopping cart killer" because of his modus operandi.“After he inflicts trauma to his victims and kills them, he transports their bodies to their final resting place, literally, in a shopping cart. And there’s video to that effect,” Davis said.
The law enforcement officials said they would scour the state and Robinson's travel records to see if there are more victims than the four currently identified. Records show that Robinson had a clean record before he was charged with two counts of first-degree murder and two counts of concealing a dead body.Washington’s Metropolitan Police Department contacted Harrisonburg Police after they arrested Robinson and said their murder suspect was the last known contact of Cheyenne Brown, a missing 29-year-old Washington woman who was last seen in late September when she traveled on the Metro from Washington, DC to the Huntington station in northern Virginia.
