Teen Went on 4-Day Killing Spree After Watching ‘The Purge’

Date:

Teen goes on a killing spree after killing three people modeled after The Purge.

A 19-year-old man is accused of killing three people over four days, in a series of attacks modeled after the movie The Purge. According to reports, a witness told police that Jonathan Cruz he was “purging” referring to the 2013 movie starring Ethan Hawke in which crime is legal for 12 hours.

From NY Post:

Cruz’s initial hearing on murder, robbery and other felony counts is scheduled Thursday in Indianapolis. Police say Cruz shot and killed Billy Boyd and Jay Higginbotham on May 12, and a third man, Jose Ruiz, on May 15.

Prosecutors tell the Indianapolis Star that Cruz could face the death penalty and that his crimes were “100% random”.
