ages.
The locations were spread across Los Angeles and surrounding communities.
And investigators struggled to understand who was responsible.
Newspapers gave the unknown offender a name:
The Night Stalker.
For months, police searched for him.
Then, in August 1985, investigators recovered a fingerprint from a stolen vehicle connected to one of the attacks.
The print was examined.

Richard Ramirez.

Police released his photograph to the public.

The crimes.
The investigation.
The fingerprint that revealed a name.
And the extraordinary arrest of Richard Ramirez.
