Third man charged in connection with Wichita double homicide

A third person has been charged in connection with a double homicide outside a Wichita home last week.

The Wichita Eagle reports (http://bit.ly/21R5BZm) that 19-year-old Jonathan Carter is charged with first-degree murder, criminal discharge of a firearm and criminal possession of a weapon by a convicted felon in the deaths of 55-year-old Betty Ann Holloman and 24-year-old Brenton Oliver.

Jail records say he was arrested around 11 a.m. Tuesday.

Twenty-four-year-old Brent Carter and 19-year-old Jamion Wimbley have also been charged in the case after their arrests Friday. Police say Brent Carter and Jonathan Carter aren’t related.

Police say they’re searching for a fourth suspect.

Each man is being held in the Sedgwick County Jail on a $500,000 bond. The three are set for a preliminary hearing Dec. 23.

It was not immediately clear if they have attorneys.
