因涉嫌在新西兰杀死自己的妻子而被通辑的中国公民薛乃印在美国被捕。有关当局说,薛乃印星期四在乔治亚州的亚特兰大市被捕。薛乃印被指控去年9月在新西兰杀死了妻子刘安安,并在逃亡美国前把3岁的女儿遗弃在澳大利亚墨尔本的一个火车站。

为了抓获薛乃印,联邦执法机构四处张贴他的照片并把照片在一个专门寻找在逃犯的电视节目上公布。当局说,亚特兰大的一些华人认出了薛乃印,并在警察到来之前把他制服。他先前使用了一个假名,但是警方在他的钱夹里发现了他的新西兰驾驶执照。

薛乃印将被遣送回新西兰接受谋杀罪的起诉。他的女儿目前在中国和亲人住在一起。

Chinese national Nai Yin Xue wanted for allegedly murdering his wife in New Zealand has been apprehended in the United States. Authorities say Nai Yin Xue was arrested Thursday in Atlanta, Georgia. Xue is accused of murdering his wife, An’an Liu, last September in New Zealand, then abandoning the three-year-old daughter at a train station in Melbourne, Australia, before fleeing to the U.S.

Federal law enforcement agents posted his picture on billboards and a popular television show devoted to capturing fugitives. Authorities say Xue was recognized by a group of Chinese nationals in Atlanta, who physically restrained him until police arrived. He initially gave a false name, but police found his wallet with his New Zealand driver’s license.

Xue will be extradited to New Zealand to face the murder charge. His daughter is living in China with relatives.
