Four young men, including two 15 year-old high school students, were murdered in two separate incidents in their communities late Wednesday.
The two teenagers, identified as Desrick Williams of Balaclava High School and Ashnell Coke of Maggotty High, reportedly left home in Thornton about 4:00 pm to catch shrimp at a nearby stream. When the boys failed to return home within a reasonable time their parents reported them missing to the Siloah police.
A search uncovered their bodies some time after midnight early Thursday. The bodies reportedly had chop wounds to the head. read more
