DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - Another robbery charge has been filed against two men suspected of killing two brothers and a teenage friend at a southeast Des Moines duplex.
Emmanuel Totaye Jr., 19, and Daishawn Gills, 20, already are charged with three counts of first-degree murder and one of robbery connected to last Thursday’s shootings. Polk County court records don’t list the names of lawyers who could comment for the pair.
Police said in news release Wednesday that the two assaulted and robbed a juvenile at his home earlier on the day of the shootings.
Totaye and Gills are accused of killing Devonte Swanks, 19, and Malachi Swanks, 16; and a friend, Thayne Wright, 15. All lived in Des Moines.
Items belonging to the victims were found at the residences of both suspects, police said.
