A murder suspect accused of beating a New York City mother to death and leaving her body with her 7-year-old daughter allegedly walked out of an NYPD station after trying to surrender, according to his attorney and the New York Post.
Tiliek Shamel Thompson, 41, went to the 33rd Precinct stationhouse in Washington Heights around 5 a.m. on September 11, accompanied by his two cousins, as police investigated the killing of Lovay Williams, 27. However, he was not successfully taken into custody until September 12, when he was charged with murder, assault, strangulation and acting in manner injurious to a child.
