(CNN) A US Border Patrol agent arrested in connection with the slayings of four people and the kidnapping of a woman who escaped was described by authorities as a serial killer who hunted for his victims. Juan David Ortiz, 35, faces five felony charges, according to Webb County District Attorney Isidro R. "Chilo" Alaniz. The bodies of three females and one male were found over the last two weeks, sheriff's spokesperson Eduardo Chapa told CNN. "He was profiling certain kinds of victims," Alaniz said, adding "the suspect was hunting for his victims." The prosecutor says he feels comfortable describing Ortiz as a serial killer.
