From the Orlando SENTINAL.Great news. Orlando police say that they have caught alleged cop killer Markeith Loyd, who was also wanted for killing a pregnant woman.
Around 7 p.m. Tuesday, authorities located Loyd in an abandoned home, Orlando Police Chief John Mina said during a press conference. Police surrounded the home, but Loyd tried to escape through the back of the home before the SWAT teams arrived, Mina said.
Loyd then ran back inside the home and left again through the front door, wearing body armor and carrying two handguns, including a Glock that contained a magazine with the capacity for 100 rounds of ammunition, Mina said. Loyd threw the guns to the ground and resisted arrest when police officers tried to detain him.
He suffered minor injuries in the scuffle and was treated by firefighters, Mina said.He will be charged with several offenses, including multiple counts of homicide for the deaths of Clayton and Sade Dixon and her unborn child, said Orange County Sheriff Jerry Demings, who described Loyd as a "maniac." Loyd will also be charged with attempted murder for shooting Dixon's brother, who was gravely injured, as well as two counts of aggravated assault for pointing the gun at Dixon's mother and another individual, Demings said. --GRA
