The surveillance video shows the suspect, dressed in black, carrying a gray backpack, walking along 55th between 6th and 7th Avenues. In one of the videos, the suspect can be seen stopping briefly in front of a pile of trash and bending down before continuing.

The suspect also used a fake ID to check into a New York City hostel before the brutal execution-style, police sources told Fox News.

Sources say the suspect used the fake ID and paid in cash.
