Zymire Hughes, a 22-year-old Philadelphia man accused of chasing and threatening pedestrians while wearing a cracked ‘Chucky’-style mask near City Hall, was arrested in Las Vegas after a multi-state manhunt. U.S. Marshals Service and Nevada Violent Offender Task Force tracked him via surveillance footage; he’s jailed in Clark County awaiting extradition to Pennsylvania on an active aggravated assault warrant. Authorities say Hughes fled across states—from Trenton-Mercer Airport, NJ, to Orlando, FL, then to Las Vegas—before being detained; he resisted arrest and offered no stated motive.

Philadelphia house of horrors footage hints two missing women may be dead, cops say

Disturbing video footage seized from Eugene Horsch's Philadelphia 'house of horrors' appears to show missing women Maribel Fresses (2018) and Gabriella Amarando (2012) alive at times and then dead, though their bodies have not been found; investigators have logged hundreds of warrants and recovered a large trove of digital and physical evidence—chemicals, a 55-gallon drum, urns, guns, and fake DEA/FBI credentials—while linking Horsch's girlfriend to a missing-person case; authorities say the investigation has moved into new territory for homicide without a body and that more video evidence remains to be reviewed.
