Accused NYC double-killer's bizarre first words after FBI manhunt and NYPD bust

Key Points:

• Jesus Acosta, a 31-year-old parolee and violent ex-con, was arrested by the NYPD after a manhunt for two fatal armed robberies in Brooklyn and the Bronx that occurred within 48 hours.
• Acosta fatally shot MD Yousuf during a robbery at America’s Best Wings and Pizza in Brownsville and later killed Tayvon Shuler in a Bronx bodega robbery, stealing money and a personal item while Shuler was still dying.
• The FBI and United Bodegas of America offered a combined $35,000 reward for Acosta’s capture, and he was found carrying the loaded gun used in the shootings when apprehended in a Bronx park.
• Acosta faces multiple charges including first-degree murder and attempted murder, with prosecutors seeking to hold him without bail; he is currently held on life imprisonment without parole.
• Fundraisers have been launched to support the families of the victims, with Yousuf’s family raising over $42,000 to repatriate his body to Bangladesh and Shuler’s sister raising funds for funeral expenses.
