According to NY Daily the Fifth and last suspect was captured by police today in the gang rape that occurred in a Brooklyn park.
Tilden High School student Travis Beckford, 17, of Brooklyn, was busted while on school grounds, sources said. His Brooklyn classmates were stunned by word of the arrest and a heavy police presence in the hallways.

Beckford was the last person wanted in Brownsville -his four co-defendants were already charged with first-degree rape.
Police released surveillance footage of the suspects entering a nearby deli before the alleged gang rape occurred. The cops have now arrested all five of the teenage suspects.
“A kid said somebody got picked up for that thing in the park,” said Tilden student Anthony Murray, 18. “I thought, ‘Oh, wow, was that somebody at this school.’”
A Beckford friend insisted that he was a good kid and cops made a mistake.
“Travis wouldn’t — trust me,” said the 15-year-old classmate. “(It was) probably his friends. He was probably there, but he didn’t do it. Travis is mad sweet.”
