PHILADELPHIA - A convicted bank robber charged with killing two armored car guards spotted the vehicle on the road and followed it to the ATM machine, a homicide detective said Saturday.
Mustafi Ali, 36, of Philadelphia, then executed the two retired Philadelphia police officers as they serviced the cash machine, police said.
"He follows the truck, he sees an opportunity and he takes it," said the detective, who worked on the case but requested anonymity because he is not a supervisor and is not authorized to comment publicly.
Ali was scheduled to be arraigned later Saturday. He was arrested on an unrelated charge Friday afternoon and was later charged with two counts of murder, robbery, a firearms charge and other charges after giving a statement.
Ali previously served seven years in federal prison for bank robbery, the detective said. It was not clear if he had an attorney.
