Cops arrest suspect who allegedly killed mom, 2 kids in hotel room

The man who allegedly slaughtered a Staten Island woman and two of her young children — including his own 5-month-old daughter — has been caught, officials said.

Michael “Skyes” Sykes, 23, displayed no emotion on his face as he was led in handcuffs out of Staten Island’s 121st Precinct station house.

He had been on the run since Wednesday morning, when police say he fatally stabbed Rebecca Cutler, 26, in front of her kids at a Ramada Inn in Willowbrook.

Sykes also knifed Cutler’s 2-year-old, a girl named Miracle; her 1-year-old sister, Ziana; and his infant daughter, Maiyah, police said.

Only Miracle survived — and she is doing “pretty good,” said Cutler’s uncle, James Mathis.

Sykes, who was charged with three counts of murder and one count of attempted murder, ditched the bloody kitchen knife used in the crime about a block from the hotel and then took the ferry to Manhattan, authorities said.

Sykes is believed to have made his way to Brooklyn. On Thursday, he grabbed a cab to Queens, where he had been hiding out with a friend in Astoria.

Authorities received several tips that he was there and had blanketed the area with law enforcement.

The accused killer had become unhinged when he thought Cutler was fooling around on him with the man who fathered her other kids, sources said.

Cutler and her children had been at the Ramada since Dec. 6, placed there by the city instead of in a traditional homeless shelter, which are more secure.

Mayor de Blasio had told city officials in 2014 to start using hotels as an end-run around the more complicated process of opening more homeless shelters.

“When you open up a shelter, you have to notify the community, City Council members, officials, and people get upset,” a DHS source explained of the tactic.

But in the wake of the massacre, the mayor ordered DHS to increase security at hotels that double as overflow shelter housing.

Prior to the slashings, DHS security was only on hand overnight. Now, guards will be present all day.
