BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- A 35-year-old Vienna man has been charged in last week's double murder in Cambridge, Maryland State Police said Thursday.
Charles William Jones III, a.k.a. Trey, has been charged with two counts of first-degree murder and two counts of second-degree murder in the killings of Cleon Mullings, 36, of Oxford, and Kelvin Wiggins, 42, of Cambridge.
Mullings and Wiggins were found dead and suffering from blunt force trauma inside a building on Park Lane in Cambridge shortly before midnight on Jan. 25, police said.
