(2011-11-16)
(WXXI) - Rochester police say they've captured a homeless man wanted in the stabbing death of one man, and attacks on two women.
37-year old Joseph Myles was taken into custody last night.
He was found in a home on Manitou Street in the city, near to where the homicide occured.
23-year old Cameron Conyer was killed Sunday, and his 49-year old mother Mary Conyer was also stabbed several times.
On Monday, a 46-year old woman was stabbed at Gibbs Place in the city, and Myles is also a suspect in that attack.
That victim was in guarded condition.
Rochester Police are holding a Wednesday morning news conference where they'll release more information on the arrest, which they say was a result of several law enforcement entities working together.
