Police in New York City have arrested a 30-year-old homeless man with a criminal record in the cold-blooded murder of a 19-year-old Burger King cashier, who was gunned down after handing over $100 during a robbery earlier this week.
The NYPD on Friday announced that Winston Glynn, who is said to have worked at another Burger King, was in custody in connection with the Sunday morning killing of Kristal Bayron-Nieves.
He faces charges of murder, robbery, criminal use of a firearm and criminal possession of a weapon.
A police spokesperson declined to release any additional information, but unnamed NYPD sources with direct knowledge of the investigation revealed to NBC New York that Glynn was apprehended in Brooklyn on Thursday night.
Two senior police officials told the news station that the suspect was caught after police reviewed surveillance video from the scene of the shooting in East Harlem.
Clothing seen on the suspect at the time of the killing was said to have been spotted on Glynn's social media pages, and witnesses helped confirm his identity, according to the police sources.
Glynn's address is as a Days Inn hotel in Queens, which has been used as a homeless shelter.
According to reporting by the New York Post, citing police sources, Glynn is a Jamaican national and is not a US citizen.
Police tell DailyMail.com Glynn has a criminal history in New York, which includes charges of criminal possession of a weapon, counts of menacing and criminal mischief.
Bayron-Nieves's family have been notified of the arrest, which came just hours after a candlelight vigil was held outside the Burger King at East 116th Street and Lexington Avenue, where the cashier was shot dead.

Dude looks whack.
good grief he looks purely evil.
He’ll get his whopper in prison.
Meh - NYC, what will they do with him? Free him on bail or something and give him a place to stay.
I heard on the radio he already has a bunch of felonies and shouldn’t have been on the street but of course the citizens come second to the criminal.
Remember “Diversity is our strength”.
He does at that.
Put that SATANIC LOSER to DEATH! NOW!
The left would say he needs compassion and understanding because he is poor. Plus ‘racism’, slavery and sheeeet.
And will have a lot of his supporters demanding his release; again.
He’s Jamaican and homeless. No fault of his own. It was our responsibilty to coddle him. We dropped the ball. Now leave him alone in a good, clean home of his own.
He was probably FULLY VAXXED.
In the NYC of 2022, he may become a member of the City Council.
Can a sitting Governor remove him? Not that Hochul ever would being she's just as much a domestic enemy to the people as he is.
Maybe if he talks real nice they’ll use lubricant.
REDRUM! REDRUM!
lets hope so, and i hope they hold the lube.
Special order and all.
He should not have been in the country at all. He should have been deported after his felony conviction.
Until we start holding government employees personally libel for their stupid decisions we will have more of this.
/sigh...WTF do I care?
