Police officials walk Jamel McGriff out of the NYPD 107 precinct after he is arrested for allegedly killing an elderly couple and then setting their house on fire in a murder and arson attack in Queens, New York, United States, on September 11, 2025. Jamel McGriff spends several hours inside the home of Frank and Maureen Olton in the borough of Queens before burning it to the ground, say investigators.

McGriff is charged with Murder (16 counts), Robbery (3 counts), Burglary (5 counts), Grand Larceny (2 counts), Kidnapping (4 counts), Arson (2 counts), Criminal Possession of a Weapon (2 counts), Identity Theft (3 counts), and Criminal Possession of Stolen Property (4 counts).
