Police: NJ man killed 2, cut off heads, hands

Posted: Updated:

HAMILTON TOWNSHIP, N.J. (AP) — A New Jersey man is accused of fatally shooting two men in a parked car, cutting off their heads and hands and burying them in the woods in south Jersey.

Twenty-eight-year-old Yusuf Ibrahim was arrested Sunday in a Bayonne apartment following a saga that played out in multiple locations. He's charged with two counts each of murder and desecration of human remains

State Police say Ibrahim shot and killed two men he knew during an argument in a car in Jersey City sometime after Feb. 3 and later dismembered them. Authorities say he wanted to make them harder to identify and buried their heads and feet separately from their bodies.

All the parts were found by a cadaver dog in Buena Vista Township after authorities there received a tip.
