The Chicago Tribune reports that Jacob B. Nodarse was found sleeping in a minivan outside of a home in Lehigh Acres near Fort Myers around 3 p.m. He is being held on an obstruction of justice charge, but police told the Tribune he is a “prime suspect” in the murders of Jeffrey Kramer, 50, his wife Lori, 48, and their son Michael, 20. Murder charges have yet to be filed.
Police in Florida had been on the look-out for Nodarse, after Darien police told them he was driving a blue BMW coupe and had family in Fort Myers and Miami, The Tribune reports.
A motive in the slayings remained unknown Wednesday. Tuesday morning, police responded to the 8900 block of Kilkenny Drive in Darien after the Kramers’ daughter, who was hiding in a closet, called 9-1-1 and said there were shots fired in the home. Police discovered her three family members dead on the scene.
