Michael Martin, 64, and Barry Swanson, 62, were killed and Anderson was critically injured. The suspect in the case is 22-year-old Brandon Martin, Anderson's nephew and Martin's son.

Family members said Brandon Martin had just gotten out of a drug rehabilitation facility when he returned home and attacked his father, uncle and Swanson, who was a contractor for ADT Security.

Martin then led authorities on a short chase in Swanson's truck. The truck was stopped after a pit maneuver and Martin fled into a nearby neighborhood. He was eventually apprehended by a police K-9 after jumping from the second-story window of a person's home.
