An immigrant naturalized under former President Joe Biden’s administration allegedly shot and stabbed an off-duty Department of Homeland Security (DHS) employee — and he was reportedly found dead in his jail cell Tuesday night.
Olaolukitan Adon Abel, an immigrant from the U.K. and a convicted felon, was found dead in his jail cell, the DeKalb County Sheriff’s Office said, according to the New York Post. Authorities attempted to save his life before he was ultimately pronounced dead.
While his cause of death is unknown, foul play is not suspected, police said. Police also indicated they will conduct an internal review into Abel’s death.

Besides allegedly killing Bullis, Abel was also accused of fatally shooting another woman and critically injuring a man during the violent April 13 spree, according to FOX 5 Atlanta. The alleged attacks began just before 1 a.m. April 13, according to Channel 2 Action News.
Abel faced two counts of malice murder, a count of aggravated assault, possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon or first offender probationer as a result of the alleged killing spree, 11Alive reported.
The suspect had a prior criminal record that included “convictions for sexual battery, battery against a police officer, obstruction, and assault with a deadly weapon, [and] vandalism,” Mullin said on X.
Abel allegedly committed the shootings following an “intense argument” with his roommates over the temperature in their shared home, according to FOX 5 Atlanta.
