Luka Magnotta, wanted for Canada dismember slay, caught while reading about himself at online cafe

(CBS/AP) BERLIN - The Canadian porn actor Luka Magnotta, who's suspected of murdering and dismembering a Chinese student and mailing his body parts to Canada's top political parties, was reading about himself on the Internet when he was arrested Monday at a cafe in Berlin, Germany.

Canadian investigators say the 29-year-old, who had posted internet videos of himself first killing kittens, and then a man, had spent two hours in the cafe reading media coverage about himself.

A cafe employee recognized Magnotta from a newspaper photo and flagged down a police car.

Confronted by seven officers, "He tried at first giving fake names but in the end he just said: 'You got me,'" said police spokesman Guido Busch. "He didn't resist."

I'm glad he's in police custody, and hope he stays there.
