   FOREST PARK, Ill. (AP) — A man suspected of killing four people aboard a   
   Chicago-area transit train shot them at close range while they were asleep,   
   officials said Tuesday.   
      
   The shooting took place before 5:30 a.m. Monday aboard the Chicago area’s L   
   system, on a Blue Line train that was moving near where the line ends in   
   Forest Park, a suburb about 10 miles (16 kilometers) west of downtown Chicago.   
   Rhanni S. Davis, 30, was    
   later arrested on another Chicago Transit Authority L line, according to   
   police. Authorities charged Davis with four counts of first-degree murder   
   Tuesday.   
      
   Forest Park Mayor Rory Hoskins said the victims likely didn’t even see the   
   shooter.   
      
   “They were shot execution-style as they slept,” Hoskins told The   
   Associated Press.   
      
   Margaret Miller, 64, and three men including Simeon Bihesi, 28, and Adrian   
   Collins, 60, were fatally shot, according to the Cook County medical   
   examiner’s office. All of their addresses were listed as unknown. Police   
   said they were still working to    
   notify relatives of the fourth person killed, so his name has not yet been   
   released.   
      
   Preliminary investigation shows the victims were on two different cars as the   
   Blue Line train was headed toward Forest Park, police said. The Blue Line runs   
   24 hours and stretches from that suburb through downtown Chicago to O’Hare   
   International    
   Airport. It runs both below and above ground.   
      
   The suspected shooter fled. But police found and arrested Davis thanks to   
   video footage from the train, Hoskins said.   
      
   Public records did not have a listed phone number for Davis. A message sent   
   Tuesday to a listed email was not immediately returned. Forest Park police and   
   the Cook County state’s attorney’s office did not immediately respond to   
   messages about Davis’   
    legal representation. The Cook County public defender’s office said it   
   wasn’t representing him.   
      
   Davis is scheduled to appear in court at noon on Wednesday, according to Cook   
   County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx, who spoke Tuesday evening during a media   
   briefing in Forest Park. She called the shootings a “horrific, heinous and   
   inexplicable act of    
   violence” and said more details would come out during the court hearing.   
      
   Investigators haven’t determined a motive, police said at the briefing.   
      
   CTA officials said they were assisting in the investigation and that security   
   footage “proved to be vital.”   
      
   “Although this matter remains under investigation, all current information   
   points this being an isolated incident,” CTA President Dorval Carter Jr.   
   said in a statement.   
      
   Forest Park police are used to calls to the busy transit stops there, Hoskins   
   said. The CTA’s Green Line also ends in Forest Park and runs nearly 24 hours   
   a day.   
      
   Over the years, nonprofit organizations have also used the transportation hubs   
   for outreach and providing medical care and other services to homeless people   
   who seek refuge aboard the trains, particularly in winter.   
      
   But the mass shooting in the community of 14,000 people has sparked new fears.   
   Hoskins, whose position as mayor is part time, said he couldn’t recall a   
   homicide being reported in Forest Park in years.   
      
   His teenage son takes the L to school and he watched a little closer than   
   usual at Tuesday morning’s drop off.   
      
   “People are rattled,” he said. “We want to make them feel safe.”
