SUSPECT ARRESTED IN DART SHOOTINGS

Police arrested a suspect today in the case of the man who has been blowing homemade needle darts into the backsides of well-dressed women.

The man was placed in several lineups and viewed by victims of the so-called Dartman, who investigators say is responsible for blowing darts into at least 52 women.

Women in the midtown Manhattan area have been watching their backs since June 26, when the odd crime wave began. None of the women has suffered serious physical injury.
