By Julie Watson and Robert Jablon Associated Press SAN Dl EGO A man arrested for a string of deadly attacks on the homeless had a long history of crime and mental health issues and was himself living in subsidized housing for the homeless. Jon David Guerrero, 39, was arrested Friday by police who heard a homeless man screaming after he was attacked.

Guerrero remained jailed Saturday on suspicion of murder, attempted murder and arson. Police told reporters they have no doubt they nabbed the man responsible for five attacks since July 3 that left three men dead. The victims all homeless men -suffered upper-body injuries and two were set on fire. Police said they had not determined a motive for the attacks. Guerrero grew up in the wealthy community of Coro-nado, across the San Diego Bay, known for its mansions and picturesque beaches.

But since January he had been living in a one-room apartment in downtown's Alpha Square, a subsidized housing complex for the poor and homeless. Bob McElroy, president of the Alpha Project, said he had met Guerrero. "Nothing exceptional," he said. "Very well mannered, 'yes sir' and 'no Cordial. Quiet.

Loner." But Guerrero has a history of criminal arrests and mental problems and spent time at a state mental hospital, public records show. His criminal cases in San Diego date from 1999 to 2009. He pleaded guilty in 2008 to burglary, grand theft and possession of marijuana and narcotics paraphernalia. His mother, Kathleen Guerrero, when his medication wears off but on medication "can lead a normal, productive and crime free life." Guerrero was arrested early Friday after a 55-year-old man was attacked under a freeway bridge, suffering severe trauma to his upper body. Police found Guerrero riding a bicycle nearby and uncovered evidence at the scene and at his apartment linking him to all the crimes, police Capt.

David Nisleit said. Police Chief Shelley Zimmerman called the spate of attacks the worst she has seen in her 34 years in law enforcement. Another man was taken into custody July 7 and then released from jail Monday without being charged. Police released a new sketch of the suspected serial killer Thursday. Guerrero resembles the suspect whose image was caught on a convenience store surveillance video after the first killing July 3.

He was wearing a hat Friday similar to the one worn by the man in the video. tive society. She was reviled by some in the country for being crass and vulgar, and prone to attention-seeking stunts. But other Pakistanis admired her defiance and independence. "It was unfathomable to a lot of Pakistanis that a real woman could be as brazen or shameless about her sexuality publicly, because her entire persona was built around flaunting her body, talking about sex and being in everyone's face," said Hasan Zaidi, a Pakistani filmmaker and media critic.

Born to a poor family from the backwaters of Punjab, Baloch, whose real name was Fauzia Azeem, said she had run away from home to pursue her dream of becoming a star. She took to social media after unsuccessful efforts to enter the mainstream entertainment industry. In June, Baloch posted photographs of herself with a well-known Muslim cleric, Mufti Abdul Qavi, which attracted much attention on social media. The pictures show Baloch pouting and wearing the cleric's hat while he, seemingly bedazzled, stares into the camera. Many Pakistanis saw the photographs as scandalous, and Qavi was removed from his position on the country's moon-sighting committee, which determines when Ramadan starts and ends in accordance with the Islamic lunar calendar.

The news of her death prompted an immediate outcry on Twitter and Face-book in Pakistan. The killing has put the spotlight back on so-called honor killings in Pakistan. Each year, hundreds of Pakistani women are killed by relatives angered by behavior that they think has tarnished the family's reputation, human-rights activists say. Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has vowed to strengthen laws intended to prevent such killings, but critics say concrete steps have yet to be taken.

Police said Baloch apparently was attacked Friday night while she was asleep in her parents' house in Muzaf-farabad, a town on the outskirts of Multan in Punjab province. The police suspect her brother, Waseem Ahmed Azeem, in the killing. His whereabouts were unknown Saturday. Baloch, 26, a model, singer and social media celebrity, had gained notoriety in Paki-stan recently because of provocative, seminude photographs of herself that she posted on social media sites, and appearances in music videos. Her bold persona defied the conventions of Pakistan, a deeply conserva wrote several letters asking the court to seek psychiatric treatment for him in jail.

She said that Guerrero didn't do well on probation because he had trouble following directions and keeping track of time and appointments. In 2009, Jon David Guerrero was arrested again and pleaded guilty to robbery for repeatedly knocking down a homeless woman and stealing her bicycle. He then violated the conditions of his probation and was ruled mentally incompetent and sent to Patton State Hospital.
