A man who has been arrested three times for murder and was released on parole in 2020 is now accused of killing a fourth individual in California, a report says.
Bobby Dozier, 37, is once again in police custody following the killing of Emari Cook on July 14 in Richmond, just north of Oakland, according to KTVU.
Police told the station that Dozier allegedly drove up to Cook, exited his vehicle and shot him.
Investigators added that rifle casings were found at the scene and the car used in the attack was tracked down to Dozier with the help of a highway license plate reader system.
