Incident Location: 1100 block of Ray Charles Blvd

On June 1, 2024, at approximately 1:15 p.m., officers responded to the 1100 block of Ray Charles Blvd in reference to two subjects, one adult female (B/F) and one adult male (B/M), who had been shot.

Upon their arrival, officers located both victims with upper body trauma. Both victims were pronounced deceased at the scene.

The investigation revealed that on Monday, May 27, 2024, suspect Robert Craig Webb (B/M, 06/15/1958), was informed about allegations that both victims were claiming about him, which angered Webb. On June 1, 2024, Webb parked in the garage of the apartment complex, gained entry to the stairs of the residential building and waited for the victims in the hallway where they were fatally shot.

Webb and the two victims were known to each other.

Shortly after the incident, Webb turned himself in and the firearm used to officers on scene.

Webb was transported to Orient Road Jail and charged with two felony counts of Murder in the First Degree and one felony count of Armed Burglary of Structure with Assault or Battery.
