Brazilian police say they arrest a self-confessed suspected serial killer after he is caught while trying to escape disguised as a woman and carrying a baby. Authorities say the arrest leads them to reopen dozens of cases they link to the suspect.

Both outlets report that the suspect is already associated with multiple unsolved incidents and that investigators are taking steps to re-examine them following the arrest. CBS also frames the moment of capture as part of an escape attempt, emphasizing the unusual disguise and the fact that the person is carrying a baby at the time. Al Jazeera likewise focuses on the arrest and the plan to reopen many linked cases, without adding further details about the circumstances beyond the disguise.

While the sources align on the core facts—the arrest, the disguise, and the intention to reopen a large number of cases—there are no additional confirmed specifics in the provided excerpts about locations, timelines, or the contents of the cases being reviewed.
