I thot the Night Stalker was captured in east LA when he went through a Latino neighborhood and they chased him down and captured him? Anyone else recall?

Yes. Once that had his name, they put his face on the cover of the paper. Ramirez would be apprehended by a Hispanic mob screaming "El Diablo!" as they chased him through their neighborhood after recognizing him from the photos.

Yes, ‘El Diablo’ - I was very nervous that summer, still am very careful to close windows and lock doors, always - because of the NS.

As I recall, he tried to carjack a Latino woman who called out for help. The neighbors orginally thought it was a woman being assaulted which is not exactly a guarantee of popularity in Latino neighborhoods. Once her screams got their attention, they made the connection. The police had to rescue him from the crowd.

I also seem to remember that he’d just gotten off a bus from an out of town trip.
