A teacher’s aide who briefly worked as a New York City police officer has been charged with murder in connection with the fatal stabbing of a jogger, according to court documents.
Sayed Mohassib was arrested Saturday, more than a week after Katie Suarez was stabbed in the neck while jogging in Brooklyn.
He was working for the New York City Department of Education, the department confirmed Sunday. The department has suspended Mohassib and will move to terminate his employment pending the outcome of the case, it said in a statement to CNN.
