Officers arrested Almansoori after they spotted him in a stolen car.
He apparently told police he was wanted for a homicide in New York City and told them to Google SoHo 54 Hotel.

There have been several recent acts of violence by newly arrived migrants in New York City.

A group of migrants assaulted several police officers in Times Square last month. Earlier this month, a 15-year-old fired several shots inside a Times Square store and at officers as they tried to apprehend him.
The city also announced a curfew for many migrant shelters to try and curtail the crime.
Some immigrant advocates believe the recent crimes create a false sense of chaos and insecurity that threatens law-abiding immigrants.
Eyewitness News' Joe Torres spoke with Liz Alarcón, the daughter of Venezuela immigrants and founder and Executive Director of Pulso, on the upcoming episode of Tiempo to discuss why these few arrests do not represent the widespread migrant community.
