Ramone Jamarr Alston, infamously known as the 'Christmas Day Killer,' has been apprehended in Kannapolis, North Carolina, after escaping custody near UNC Hillsborough Hospital. Tactical officers successfully arrested him at a hotel on Cloverleaf Parkway around 2 a.m. Friday, more than 100 miles away from the escape site.
Authorities have confirmed that Alston will face charges for felony escape from prison and will be transferred to a high-security unit within the state prison system. This comes as he was serving a life sentence for the first-degree murder of 1-year-old Maleah Williams, who tragically lost her life in a drive-by shooting.
