Police across North Texas are investigating four separate murders that happened in less than 24-hours.

The first happened in Denton around 11:30 p.m. Tuesday. Officers arrived in the 900 block of Cleveland Street, where they found 22-year-old Steven Warren Daniels Junior laying on the ground inside a gated apartment complex with a gunshot wound to his chest. He was taken to a nearby hospital where he was pronounced dead. No suspect has been identified, police said.

The second happened in Arlington just after 1 a.m. Wednesday. Officers were called to the 2300 block of Streambed Court, where they found a 29-year-old adult man laying in his apartment with multiple gunshot wounds. He was taken to a nearby hospital, where he later died. Investigators are speaking with witnesses and checking surveillance videos, but so far no arrests.

The third happened in Grapevine. Officers were called to the Wildwood Creek Apartments around 9:30 a.m. Wednesday. A man who lives in the complex told officers he looked out his window and saw a man lying face-down in a nearby wooded area. Investigators said there is evidence of foul play, but they are waiting to get an official cause of death from the medical examiner.

The fourth happened in Dallas around 7 p.m. Wednesday. Officers were called to the intersection of Morrell Avenue and South Denely Drive. Investigators said a man was involved in an altercation at the location when the suspect shot the man. He was taken to a nearby hospital, where he later died. The suspect got away before the police arrived. Police later said 55-year-old Stanley Jemison was charged with murder after confessing to the crime. No bond has been set as of this writing.
