Virginia law enforcement authorities, who were conducting an investigation into the killing of three individuals who shared a residence, received assistance in capturing the primary suspect, who happened to be another individual residing in the same house, located hundreds of miles away to the north. Alyssa J. Venable, 23, was seen by New York state troopers driving her Honda Civic.
She was apprehended after a high-speed pursuit that occurred around 100 miles away from the Canadian border, according to the Washington Post. Venable is facing charges of murder in relation to the killings of Robert John McGuire, aged 77; Gregory Scott Powell, aged 60; and Carol Anne Reese, aged 66, in Fredericksburg, Virginia, as reported by CBS News.
During a welfare check at their apartment, the police discovered the victims with injuries to their upper body, as reported by NBC News. Although the specific details of how the victims were murdered were not explicitly stated by the police, Venable is also accused with using a handgun to perpetrate a criminal. Regarding the motivation, the Spotsylvania County Sheriff's Office in Virginia said that the inquiry is now continuing and in its first phases.
"We are refraining from disclosing specific details of the incident." New York troopers strategically deployed a tire-puncturing device on the road, resulting in Venable's car crashing during a high-speed pursuit reaching speeds of 100mph. Venable received medical attention for injuries that were not life-threatening.
