IPSWICH, England — Police have made an arrest in the Suffolk strangler case. According to late breaking reports, a 37-year-old taxi driver, identified as Tom Stephens, is suspected of murdering five English prostitutes. "I don't have alibis for some of the times (of the murders), actually I'm not entirely sure I have tight alibis for any of the times. But I'm not worried about being charged. I'm innocent," he said during a brief interview with The Sunday Mirror. Suffolk police have not yet commented on what led them to Stephens.
