Man Arrested Over Muslim Family's Murder

Written By Unknown on Rabu, 11 Februari 2015 | 20.18

A man has reportedly been arrested on three counts of first-degree murder following a shooting in North Carolina.

Craig Stephen Hicks, 46, is being held in Durham County jail following the killings of three members of the same family in Chapel Hill.

Local media say the victims have been identified as Deah Shaddy Barakat, 23, his wife Yusor Abu-Salha, 21, and her sister, Razan Abu-Salha, 19, of Raleigh.

Mr Barakat is believed to have been a dental student at the University of North Carolina and volunteered with a charity providing emergency dental care to children in Palestine.

Hicks reportedly turned himself in after the shooting on Tuesday afternoon.

At the moment, police in Chapel Hill are not sure what the motive was.

Hicks reportedly described himself as an atheist on his Facebook page and regularly posted images and text condemning religion.

Some people on social media have claimed that the Muslim family were murdered "execution style", but that has not been confirmed.

In a statement police confirmed the three deaths and said the department is "questioning a person of interest in the crime and has reason to believe that there is no ongoing threat to the public".
