OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Police have arrested a teenager on a warrant charging him as an adult with two counts of first-degree murder in the shooting deaths of two men over the weekend.
Court records show that 16-year-old Charles Trotter was also charged with two weapons counts in the warrant issued Monday. Police say Trotter was arrested Tuesday on suspicion of murder in the Saturday night deaths of 25-year-old Dexter Joseph and 26-year-old Marcel Lovejoy.
Both men were found dead in a north-central Omaha apartment; both had been shot.
The deaths marked Omaha’s second and third homicides of 2015.
