Stephen Paul Gale, a 71-year-old man wanted for the 1989 rape of two women in Framingham, Massachusetts, was arrested in Los Angeles after a prolonged car chase. Gale, identified through DNA and forensic genealogy, had been on the run for decades and was recently linked to the crimes in May. The pursuit began in San Pedro and ended near UCLA Medical Center after Gale's vehicle hit a spike strip. He faces multiple charges, including aggravated rape, kidnapping, and armed robbery. Gale's arrest marks a significant breakthrough in a cold case that had haunted the Framingham community for over 30 years. Gale was taken to a hospital for treatment following his arrest.
