On the run for nearly three decades, 71-year-old Stephen Paul Gale was arrested by the Los Angeles Police Department.
A suspected serial rapist wanted in connection with the rape of two women in Massachusetts in 1989 was arrested in Los Angeles on Thursday following a lengthy police chase. Officers located the suspect, Stephen Paul Gale, 71, who was driving a dark SUV, shortly after 4 p.m. in the Wilmington area and began their pursuit, according to U.S. Marshals. Gale led police onto the 110 and 405 freeways, eventually exiting the freeway onto surface streets on L.A.
His arrest was the result of a decades-long nationwide manhunt for Gale, who was charged with aggravated rape and kidnapping of two women in Massachusetts in 1989. He was recently identified through genetic genealogy as a suspect in a series of rapes in Boston from 1989-90, authorities said. At the time of the incidents, Gale's identity was unknown and he was referred to simply as the 'Boston Strip Mall Rapist.
