OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — A 23-year-old man suspected of fatally shooting a woman and her 2-year-old daughter and wounding three more women has turned himself in.
Police say Dontevous (dahn-TAYE’-vuhs) Loyd surrendered at the Douglas County Jail a little before 6 a.m. Tuesday.
The five people were shot around 11 p.m. Sunday at an apartment in northwest Omaha. Authorities say 2-year-old Kenacia Amerson-Straughn and 22-year-old Destacia Straughn were pronounced dead at the scene. Eighteen-year-old Jamie Latner, 21-year-old Larrion Williams and 22-year-old Kachelle Roby were taken to Omaha hospitals for treatment.
Loyd was being sought on a warrant that lists two counts of first-degree murder, three counts of attempted murder and six weapons counts. It’s unclear whether Loyd has an attorney who could comment on his behalf.
