Jewish serial killer stalking black men? No.

That was the rumor when the suspect was caught with an Israeli passport.

Wednesday, a man who police suspect may be the serial killer that has moved from Flint, Michigan to Ohio and Virginia has been caught in Atlanta; 20 people have been stabbed since May and 5 of the victims have died. The man was taken into custody on an unrelated charge at the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport as he attempted to board a flight out of the country. Officials said that the man had an expired Israeli passport. His name has not been released.

Sorry to disappoint the anti-semites, but his name is Elias Abuelazam.

Elias Abuelazam is a Christian Arab.

In the hardscrabble Israeli town of Ramle southeast of Tel Aviv that has a mixed Jewish-Arab population, residents in the Arab neighborhood where Abuelazam grew up expressed shock that the shy son of a respected family could be a suspect in such a gruesome crime spree.

. . . Ramle’s 3,000-member Arab Christian community is extremely tight knit, and residents were extremely cautious about discussing Abuelazam’s past.
