Cops in Cobble Hill, Brooklyn, thought they were pulling over a run-of-the-mill car thief Tuesday afternoon — but instead wound up capturing a pistol-packing fugitive wanted for a one-man spree of murder, rape and robberies in Raleigh, North Carolina.
Kendrick Keyanti Gregory, 21, had been on the lam since Monday, when he allegedly fatally shot one man, wounding another man and then raped a 15-year-old girl.
The trail had gone cold until 3 p.m. Tuesday, when a 55-year-old woman left her keys in her 2014 Honda Pilot while dashing into a bank at Warren Street and Broadway in Lower Manhattan, police sources said.
She called the cops, who were able to track her stolen Honda to Brooklyn using the car’s “linxup,” a GPS device.
Cops pulled the car over about a half-hour later on Smith Street between Dean and Pacific streets, never guessing that a murder suspect was behind the wheel with two loaded firearms in the car.
“They went at him with guns drawn,” a police source said.
