A Florida man is accused of shooting and killing three of his family members.
On Wednesday, authorities arrested Cornelius Whitfield in the deaths of his uncle Antonio Maurice Graham, 45, his grandmother, Patricia Ann Whitfeld Sharpe, 66, and his great-grandmother, Sallie Hobbs Whitfeld, 83.
According to PEOPLE, he also injured another victim.
On Tuesday, a call was placed to St. Petersburg police by a woman saying she had been shot. The woman was able to leave the home and run to a neighbor’s house. A two-year-old was also at the home at the time of the shooting but was uninjured.
When authorities arrived, they tore down the house’s front wall and arrested Whitfeld, who was still inside. He was already wanted on first-degree murder and attempted murder charged from a shooting at an apartment complex earlier this month, the outlet reports.
Whitfield has served two prior sentences in a Florida state prison related to drug charges, WFLA News reported.
