Who is I-70 Serial Killer?
Well, this particular even American investigative agencies cannot answer clearly as they have not been able to solve the case since 1992. The I-70 killer is an unidentified American serial killer who is known to have killed six store clerks in the Midwest in the spring of 1992. His nickname derives from the fact that several of the stores in which his victims worked were located a few miles off of Interstate 70. I-70 Serial Killer used to prey on young, petite, brunette women. As per the information available, I-70 Serial Killer remains at large till date because the investigators struggle to locate the individual behind the shooting deaths of six victims. They also suspect the person's involvement in multiple other unsolved killings and the January 1994 incident at Vicki Webb's Houston shop that she barely survived.
Vicki Webb in ID's show has laid out a hazy description of the killer who tried to kill him. She stated that the shooter reportedly walked into the store and started looking around, asking questions about traffic patterns, and making conversation about meeting his niece before shooting her as soon as she turned around.
