A man was spotting wearing surgical gloves as he left the scene of a double murder in an Atlanta apartment, cops say.
Stefhon Hamilton, 21, was taken into custody on Dec. 15 and charged with two counts of felony murder, WSB-TV reported.
On Nov. 22, officers responded to reports of a person stabbed in an apartment on Jackson Street, according to WSB-TV.
At the scene, they found Daniel Aaron, 31, and Kristen McDevitt, 30, dead from stab wounds, WSB-TV reported.
Investigators determined that a man was allowed into the apartment and stayed for a substantial amount of time before leaving, according to WSB-TV.
Police later released surveillance video of Hamilton walking through a parking garage wearing a black hoodie, black pants and a striped t-shirt, WSB-TV reported.
Atlanta police said the suspect was first seen on video outside the door closest to the victims’ apartment texting on his phone, according to WSB-TV.
Cops say the suspect stayed in the apartment for about an hour-and-a-half before he’s seen on surveillance video running down the hall with a large safe, WSB-TV reported. At that point, he’s also seen wearing surgical gloves and a black baseball hat, according to WSB-TV.
Friends described the young couple as pure, fun and always the first to lift others up with a kind word, WSB-TV reported.
