Detroit — A 18-year-old Detroit man was charged Thursday in connection with the slayings of three members of the city's LGBTQ community, prosecutors said.
Devon Robinson is facing charges of first-degree murder, assault with intent to murder and use of a firearm in connection with a felony, according to the Wayne County Prosecutor's Office.
Authorities said the incidents began on May 25, when Robinson allegedly fatally shot Alunte Davis, 21, Paris Cameron, 20, and Timothy Blancher, 20, all from Detroit.
The victims were shot inside a home on Devonshire on the city's east side.
Prosecutors believe the victims were targeted for their sexual orientation. Davis and Blancher were gay men, and Cameron was a transgender woman.
