FORT WORTH, Texas (KDFW) -- The man accused of killing three people who worked at a car lot in Fort Worth is now charged for their murders. Police arrested 44-year-old Lamont Cousins on three counts of capital murder.
Monday afternoon a person called police to report they couldn't get into Bill's Auto Sales and there was blood on the door. Officers found 65-year-old Virginia Lewis shot to death in a car.
The investigation led them to an abandoned building in Palo Pinto County where they found two more bodies: 46-year-old Veronica Jones and 55-year-old Clayton Turrentine. A family member said the victims are her mother, her great aunt and the owner of the car lot.
Cousins was being held on a $1 million bond.
