Three people have been arrested in Florida in the stabbing deaths of two people last week in North Carolina.

Multiple media outlets reported the suspects were arrested near Middleburg, Florida, near Jacksonville.

Wilkesboro Police Chief Craig Garris said Monday that 25-year-old Richard Weston Ward of Wilkesboro is charged with two counts of murder. Ward also is charged with motor vehicle theft and financial card theft.

Garris said 38-year-old Katrina Anne Malouin of Burnsville and 21-year-old Alexander Miguel White of Black Mountain are charged with motor vehicle theft and financial card theft.

It wasn't known if they have attorneys.
