A man suspected of shooting three people in New York’s Times Square, including a four-year-old girl, has been arrested in Florida, according to a law enforcement official.

Farrakhan Muhammad was taken into custody near Jacksonville, the official said, four days after the shooting on Saturday that rattled the Big Apple tourist haven known as the “Crossroads of the World”.
