Police nabbed a white supremacist covered in tattoos after cops said the career criminal killed three and wounded another during a gun attack in Washington.
Self-described skinhead Brent Luyster, 35, ignited a manhunt after shooting three people to death 20 miles north of Vancouver in Woodland, cops said. He also wounded a woman with a gunshot to the face.
The lone survivor found help by driving to a nearby convenience store, but she was unable to speak after the bullet “took most of her face off,” Clark County Sheriff’s Office officials told the Daily News. Through handwritten notes to authorities, she identified Luyster as her assailant.
Authorities found an unidentified man and woman dead inside a home and another male victim outside.
The killings were not racially-motivated, Sgt. Tony Barnes told the Daily News.
Luyster was allegedly “in search of something” when he shot the victims, all of whom were associates of Luyster and white, Barnes said. The victims have not been identified.
Cops shared a shirtless photo of Luyster to the public hoping to track down the shooting suspect. The pictures taken within the past two months detailed tattoos covering his arms, chest, and back of swastikas, a portrait of Hitler, a Nazi soldier and “RaHoWa” — a contraction and term used by white supremacists to describe a racial holy war. It is also the name for a Canadian metal band.
He had the word “skinhead” scrawled across his stomach.
Police distributed mug shots of the wanted man dating back at least a decade showing a heavier-set Luyster, but he had since trimmed his facial hair and shaved his head.
