The latest news from around North Texas.
Investigators found and arrested Ricks approximately three hours later about 70 miles north of the Texas/Oklahoma border about 11:15 p.m.
Neighbors told NBC 5 at the time of the stabbing they heard loud screams coming from the apartment.
"It was wailing," said neighbor Jeri Watson. "It was extremely loud, I mean we heard it from across the street. Like, 'Oh my gosh. Something happened,' you know?"
'It's just sad," Watson said. "No matter what the age, it just makes you wonder what happened and why and who's the person and is the person caught."
Police have yet to release the relationship between the suspect and the victims. The condition of the 12-year-old boy is also unknown.
