BREAKING: DHS confirms to @FoxNews that Olaolukitan Adon Abel, the suspect arrested for a seemingly random murder spree in DeKalb County, GA that left two women dead and a homeless man shot, is a national of the United Kingdom who was naturalized into a US citizen during the Biden administration in 2022. DHS confirms to FOX that one of the victims, 40-year-old Lauren Bullis, was a DHS employee who worked in the DHS Office of the Inspector General. She was found stabbed and shot to death while walking her dog. Abel faces two counts of murder, aggravated assault, and weapons charges after police say he carried out an early morning shooting spree in three separate locations in DeKalb County, GA on Monday, shooting and killing a woman in front of a Checkers, shooting and stabbing Lauren Bullis to death while she was walking her dog, and shooting a homeless man several times in front of a shopping center. Motive is unknown. DHS confirms that Abel had a lengthy rap sheet prior to this incident, including prior convictions for sexual battery, battery against a police officer, and assault with a deadly weapon.
