Synopsis

A Canadian porn actor suspected of murdering and dismembering a Chinese student and mailing his body parts to political parties was reading about himself on the internet when he was arrested at a Neukölln cafe in Berlin. Canadian investigators say 29-year-old Luka Rocco Magnotta's obsessions led him to post on the web videos of himself killing a man and some kittens, and finally to his arrest at the cafe where he had spent two hours reading media coverage about himself. An international manhunt that captured global attention ended quietly on Monday, June 4, 2012, in the working-class Neukölln district of the German capital when a cafe employee recognized Magnotta from a newspaper photo and flagged down a police car.
