The investigation continues into the deadly shooting of a former mayor of Minden and his daughter by a young family member. 82-year-old Joe Cornelius and his 31-year-old daughter, Keisha Miles, were shot to death inside their home Sunday morning. Police Chief Jared McIver says investigators quickly zeroed in on one of two juveniles who were home at the time.
Cut 13 (14) “…11 years of age.”
Chief McIver says due to juvenile justice laws, they are only saying that the 11-year-old boy is a family member without getting more specific. McIver says it will take a long time to determine what led the boy to shoot the two victims dead. He is charged with two counts of first-degree murder and his bond is set at 500-thousand dollars.
