- Share via
Police discovered four bodies inside a Jeep Cherokee in a vacant lot in Detroit, authorities said. A man suspected in the victims’ slayings has been arrested.
Police think the bodies were those of four people who disappeared from their home Saturday -- Alicia Jackson, 24, Gloria Pitts, 17, and Jackson’s two children, Jamon Wilmer, 7, and I’Jannia Jackson, 4.
Authorities said a friend of Jackson who suspected something was wrong called police. Pitts’ 1-year-old daughter was found unharmed in a closet, but the others were missing.
Police spokesman James Tate said the slayings might be the result of a domestic dispute.
