» 1 Comment | Post a Comment

Cumberland County authorities say they are seeking Tyrone S. Roads, 21, a Powhatan resident whom they describe as a person of interest in a double slaying Saturday night.

Authorities said a man and a woman were found dead in the Lakeside Village area of Cumberland near Cartersville. Both suffered injuries consistent with knife wounds, but a cause of death is still being determined by the state medical examiner's office.

Cumberland Sheriff Darrell Hodges described the killings as brutal. He identified the victims as Ricky Thurston and Barry Shaver, a female, both of whom lived in Cumberland.

Anyone with information is asked to call the sheriff's office at (804) 492-4120.
