A murder suspect who was accidentally released from a New York City jail in March has been re-apprehended, police said.
Christopher Buggs, 26, was being held at New York City’s notorious Rikers Island jail awaiting trial in connection with the killing of Ernest Brownlee, 55, outside a bodega in Brooklyn in 2018.
Police recaptured Buggs in a Bronx bodega more than a month after a clerical error caused his release from jail, Fox News reported.
Alex Mohammed, a 22-year-old store clerk, told the
New York Post that 15 to 20 officers swarmed the store to make the arrest.
Buggs allegedly shot Brownlee, an ex-con who was convicted of murdering two men himself in the 1980s, three times during a dispute in 2018.
