Three people were shot dead at a home on Janet Davis Circle in Indianola, Mississippi, on a Saturday afternoon just before 1 p.m. The victims were 76-year-old Steve Scott and his 73-year-old wife Sarah Scott, who were found outside the residence, and 65-year-old Vanessa Cassandra Hollins, who was found inside. All three were pronounced dead at the scene.

Shortly after the bodies were found, law enforcement located the Scotts’ grandson, 36-year-old Alton Williams, in a vehicle nearby and took him into custody after a brief pursuit. Williams was charged with three counts of murder in connection with the deaths of his grandparents and their friend.

Friends and neighbors described the victims as kind, lively people devoted to family and community. The family and the suspect’s relatives issued a statement saying they were heartbroken, referencing mental health and asking for prayers and privacy as they cope with the loss.
