Teen Arrested For Double Murder

(Columbia, SC) -- A teenager is accused of killing two people in Columbia. 

Police announced yesterday they arrested 18-year-old Genari McNeil for the weekend shooting deaths of a man and a woman, but another suspect remains on the loose. 

The bodies of 26-year-old Jahquan Peterson and 23-year-old Mary Carmichael were found late Saturday night in a home on Skyland Drive. 

Police believe the shootings were the result of a robbery, and one of the victims may have shot McNeil in self-defense.
