Three people wanted in connection with the death of a Lewisville pawn shop owner are now in custody and facing murder charges.
On Tuesday, Lewisville Police released the names of two men, 19-year-old Damonta Jerone Skinner and 17-year-old Denyrion Keyshaun Skinner, who they said were both wanted in connection with the murder of 54-year-old Daniel White, a pawn shop owner who was fatally shot during an attempted robbery on Valentine's Day.
Police had already announced their first suspect in White's murder was in custody, 18-year-old Jatevon Marquise Johnson, who was arrested in Dallas on Feb. 25. But three weeks after the fatal shooting, police had not publicly identified any other suspects or announced any additional arrests.
According to police, Johnson and two other men walked into White's pawn shop at 962 Mill Street at about 9:30 a.m. on Feb. 14 and attempted to rob him. During the robbery, police said White was fatally shot in the chest.
