NEW YORK (1010 WINS/WCBS 880) -- He's just another face in the crowd.
A Google Street View image from June 2022 appears to show Long Island serial killer suspect Rex Heuermann right outside his Midtown Manhattan office.
Heuermann, 59, was charged last Friday with first-degree murder in the killings of three women in the Gilgo Beach murders. He's also the "prime suspect" in the killing of a fourth woman, prosecutors said.
The Google Street View image appears to show Heuermann standing with a woman in front of his architectural firm at 385 Fifth Ave.
The capture was spotted by an eagle-eyed Reddit user and posted to the subreddit LISKiller, where people have been discussing the case for years.
While not confirmed, the man in the image bears a striking resemblance to Heuermann and is also wearing a very similar outfit to the one Heuermann was wearing when he was arrested on Fifth Avenue last Thursday night, according to surveillance video of the arrest.
Heuermann, who commuted to his Midtown job from his home in Massapequa Park, was charged in the decade-old murders of Melissa Barthelemy, Megan Waterman and Amber Costello. He's also the "prime suspect" in the murder of Maureen Brainard-Barnes, but he hasn't been charged with her death, according to authorities.
Heuermann pleaded not guilty in court Friday. His attorney Michael Brown said a teary-eyed Heuermann told him, "I didn't do this."
"He's distraught, he's clearly distraught about the charges here," Brown said, adding that the case was "extremely circumstantial in nature."
But prosecutors allege they have a trove of evidence linking Heuermann to the killings in 2009 and 2010.
"Rex Heuermann is a demon that walks among us, a predator that ruined families," Suffolk County Police Commissioner Rodney Harrison said at a news conference Friday.
