The search for a possible serial killer is finally over in Texas. 

The man suspected in three fatal shootings is in custody in Houston. Authorities say 46-year-old Jose Gilberto Rodriguez was arrested on Tuesday.

Rodriguez is suspected in the shooting death of 62-year-old Pamela Johnson in her Cypress-area home Friday; the killing of 28-year-old Allie Barrow inside a mattress store in Houston on Saturday; and the fatal shooting of a man inside another mattress store in Houston on Monday.

Police say Rodriguez also is a suspect in the robbery, shooting and wounding of a metro bus driver on Monday and a home invasion robbery on July 9th.

He is also a registered sex offender.
